Despite having had to deal with a “difficult patch” over the past two years, gold miner Resolute Mining is showing signs of steady growth, with its Syama underground gold mine, in Mali, having operated above design capacity and made a small profit throughout the second half of 2022 – a first for the mine since its inception in 2019. Resolute Mining CEO Terry Holohan tells Mining Weekly that the company has spent the last 24 months working with key engineering personnel to help turn around the underground and openpit mines as well as their plants. This involved debottlenecking all the unit operations to increase capacity, while bringing operational costs down.
