JOHANNESBURG (miningweekly.com) – Following a strike notice issued earlier this month, unionised employees at Kinross Gold's Tasiast mine, in Mauritania, on Tuesday embarked on strike action.
Kinross said in a statement that it remained open to restarting negotiations on a new collective agreement and to resolve other outstanding items with union representatives.
The TSX- and NYSE-listed gold miner did not expect the strike to affect the development of Tasiast's Phase 1 expansion.
