Mining Weekly

Shares of Australian gold miner Resolute Minin plunged 32% on Monday in their worst day in 16 years, after three of its employees including CEO Terence Holohan were detained by government officials in Mali. Holohan and two other company executives were in Bamako, the West African nation's capital, to hold talks with the local mining and tax authorities regarding their operations but were "unexpectedly detained" on Friday, the company said.
