Hecla Mining (HL) 10-Q 2016 Q2 Quarterly report

Exhibit 95

Mine Safety Disclosures

Our mines are operated subject to the regulation of the Federal Mine Safety and Health Administration (“MSHA”), under the Federal Mine Safety and Health Act of 1977 (the “Mine Act”). In July 2010, the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (the “Dodd-Frank Act”) was signed into law, and amended in December 2011. The following mine safety data is provided pursuant to the Dodd-Frank Act.

When MSHA believes a violation of the Mine Act has occurred, it may issue a citation for such violation, including a civil penalty or fine, and the mine operator must abate the alleged violation. During the second quarter of 2016, MSHA proposed $10,462 in penalty assessments at the Greens Creek mine, $1,803 in penalty assessments at the Lucky Friday mine, and $448 in penalty assessments at the Troy mine. Hecla has not yet received all penalty assessments related to the citations issued in the second quarter of 2016. We have the opportunity to contest or appeal these penalties.

During the second quarter of 2016, MSHA issued the Greens Creek mine three citations pursuant to Section 104 of the Mine Act for violations of mandatory health or safety standards that could significantly and substantially contribute to the cause and effect of a mine safety or health hazard, one such citation to the Lucky Friday mine, and no such citations at the Troy mine.

The Greens Creek mine has two legal actions pending before the Federal Mine Safety and Health Review Commission, regarding citations for which penalties have been assessed.

The Lucky Friday mine has three actions pending before the Federal Mine Safety and Health Review Commission, regarding citations for which penalties assessment have been assessed.

The Troy mine has no actions pending before the Federal Mine Safety and Health Review Commission, regarding citations for which penalties assessment have been assessed.

As required by the reporting requirements of the Dodd-Frank Act, as amended, the table below presents the following information for the three-month period ended June 30, 2016.
