Resolute Mining says it will pay Mali $160 million in tax dispute
The company’s shares in Sydney were suspended on Thursday, after tumbling 40% since news of the detention of CEO Terry Holohan.
The Zijin Mining Group , one of China’s biggest gold producers, has been ordered to pay 30 million yuan ($4.62 million) by a local court in Fujian province for a toxic spill last year that caused severe environmental pollution.
The local court in the city of Long Yan has also issued prison terms ranging between three years to 42 months to five of Zijin’s staff who were found to be involved in the incident, Zijin said in a statement on Wednesday.
