Abstract We present results for the light quark masses obtained from a lattice QCD simulation with N f = 2 degenerate Wilson dynamical quark flavours. The sea quark masses of our lattice, of spacing a ≃ 0.06 fm , are relatively heavy, i.e., they cover the range corresponding to 0.60 ≲ M P / M V ≲ 0.75 . After implementing the non-perturbative RI-MOM method to renormalise quark masses, we obtain m ud MS ¯ ( 2 GeV ) = 4.3 ± 0.4 −0 +1.1 MeV , and m s MS ¯ ( 2 GeV ) = 101 ± 8 −0 +25 MeV , which are about 15% larger than they would be if renormalised perturbatively. In addition, we show that the above results are compatible with those obtained in a quenched simulation with a similar lattice.
