Mining output down sharply in March, drags 1Q24 GDP growth
Total mining production, not seasonally adjusted, declined sharpy by 5.8% y/y in March, after expanding by 10.3% y/y (upwardly revised from 9.9% y/y) in February, in part, due to unfavourable base effects, the mid-March and Easter holidays as well as water shortages.
