The decision means the $210 million arbitration against the Kyrgyz Republic will advance to the merits stage, the Canadian junior said.

The miner reported broadly higher output in the fourth quarter across all divisions, except for copper, which suffered from lower grades and strikes.

The company, Africa's largest iron ore producer, expects profits to more than double this year on the back of higher iron ore prices and a weak rand.

Steel the US has traditionally exported to TPP countries is high in value–added, which is exactly the kind of product that helps keeping the high-cost local steelmaking business afloat, analysts warn.

But lower all-in sustaining costs mitigated the impact of decreased production, preliminary full-year figures show.

This year, the miner expects to produce 58 million ounces to 61 million ounces of silver and between 870,000 ounces and 900,000 ounces of gold.

The US President has signed two separate orders that advance the construction of TransCanada’s Keystone XL and Energy Transfer Partners LP’s Dakota Access oil pipelines.
