April 9 (Reuters) – Operations restarted at Newmont Mining Corp’s two gold mines in Ghana on Monday, a company spokesman said, after they were shut down on Saturday following an accident in which six construction workers were killed.
Civil works on the mill expansion project at Newmont’s Ahafo project, where the accident occurred, remain suspended, the spokesman said in an email. Newmont operates two mines in Ghana: Ahafo and Akyem.
