TALKS CONTINUE FOLLOWING THREE-DAY STRIKE AT MORILA
Talks between management and union representatives at Morila gold mine in
Mali continued at the weekend and today, following the return to work by the
workforce following a three-day strike. The strike was called by SECNAMI, the
mining section of the National Union of Malian Workers (UNTM) in support of the
Morila workers` dispute with management about a productivity bonus.
Although the Morila plant remained operational during the strike, the work
stoppage will have a negative impact on the mine`s gold production for the June
quarter.
Management is hopeful that a settlement of the dispute will be reached soon.
The Morila mine is owned by AngloGold Ashanti and Randgold Resources each
holding a 40% share and with the remaining 20% owned by the government of Mali.
