Canadian miner Barrick Gold Corporation’s Loulo-Gounkoto complex, in Mali, has had a fourth consecutive quarterly improvement in gold production.
This was despite an illegal work stoppage that resulted in it missing its full year production guidance of 690 000 oz by 4%.
Additionally, Barrick said it was a record throughput year in 2018 for Loulo, with more than five-million tonnes at close to the complex’s reserve grade.
