(Wallace Refiners) – Senior gold miner Nordgold announced that it has signed an agreement with Chesio Limited to sell the mature underground Zun-Holba gold mine, located in the Republic of Buryatia in Russia to Chesio Limited.
The company said that Zun-Holba produced 7.3 thousand ounces of gold equivalent in 2020. It has been operational for 35 years now (since 1986) and its gold reserves are largely depleted.

Since 2013, Nordgold has successfully constructed three gold mines, including two in Burkina Faso (Bouly and Bissa) and most recently, the Gross mine in Russia.
