Equinox Gold extends Fazenda mine to 2033
Fazenda has been operating since 1984 as a combined underground and open pit mine, producing over 3.3 million oz. of gold to date.
South Africa’s Harmony Gold on Wednesday reported a fatality at its Tshepong North mine near Welkom in the Free State province, following a rigging-related incident.
Harmony said the accident occurred on March 7 and internal investigations were underway.
This is the fourth fatality reported in Harmony’s current financial year, which runs to June 2023. The company recorded 13 deaths in the last financial year.
