El Salvador president proposes bill to overturn metals mining ban
In 2017, El Salvador became the first country in the world to ban forms of metals mining.
A robust gold price, new West African production, and strong performance from mining operations contributed to a 42% increase in revenue and an 81% increase in adjusted net earnings for Kinross Gold during the first quarter.
Meanwhile, Kinross has increased 2011 full year-production guidance to 2.67 million – 2.7 million gold equivalent ounces as a result of increasing the company’s Kupol interest to 100%.
