Kinross Gold’s Tasiast Expansion on Hold: What’s in the Future?

Along with its Q2 2018 results, Kinross Gold (KGC) provided an update on its organic development projects. The construction of Kinross Gold’s Tasiast Phase One expansion is complete, and its first ore has gone through a Semi-Autogenous Grinding (or SAG) mill. The company also stated that during the past month, throughput has continued to ramp up and has peaked at 12,000 tons per day. As we highlighted in Geopolitical Concerns Overwhelm Kinross Gold, Stock Plunges 11%, the company received a letter in May from the government of Mauritania about its desire to participate more in the company’s activities in the country.
