The African Mining Roundup is a synopsis of mining activity across the continent over the past month. The November roundup covers stories from over 20 countries, and includes over 110 separate news items in an easy-to-read disaggregated format, including details on Blackthorn Resources' approval to proceed with the expansion of the Perkoa zinc project, in Burkina Faso, to include lead and silver production; the suspension of base metals miner Albidon's operations at its Munali nickel mine, in Zambia; and Ghana's intention to raise the corporate tax rate for mining companies from 25% to 35%, while a separate 10% tax will be introduced on windfall profits.
