The African Mining Roundup is a synopsis of mining activity on the continent. The April 2013 roundup not only covers stories from more than 25 countries but also includes almost 120 separate news items in an easy-to-read, disaggregated format. This month’s report includes details of Canadian gold miner Kinross Gold’s prefeasibility study to expand its Tasiast gold mine, in Mauritania; Aim-listed Weatherly International’s environmental clearance for its Namibian Tschudi copper project; and ASX-listed energy provider Aviva Corporation’s sale of its Mmamantswe coal project, in Botswana.

This roundup is a summary of information published in Engineering News and Mining Weekly, as well as information available in the public domain.
