The company said its all-in sustaining cost, an industry metric that reflects total expenses associated with production, rose to $1,199 per ounce of gold from $1,035 per ounce.
The attributable gold production in the quarter rose to 1.5 million ounces from 1.45 million ounces a year earlier.
Net income from continuing operations dropped to $379 million, or 48 cents per share, in the quarter ended June 30, from $640 million, or 80 cents per share a year earlier.
