B2Gold meldet bislang bestes Produktionsergebnis und höheres Ziel für 2018

B2Gold Corp. gab gestern die operativen Ergebnisse des vergangenen Jahres und die Produktionsplanung für 2018 bekannt. Mit einer Fördermenge von 630.565 oz Gold verzeichnete das Unternehmen im Gesamtjahr 2017 den neunten Rekord in Folge. Gegenüber 2016 konnte die Produktion somit um 15% gesteigert werden. Die All-In Sustaining Costs werden sich 2017 voraussichtlich im unteren Bereich der Vorgabe von 940-970 $/oz bewegen. 

Im vierten Quartal wurde ebenfalls eine Rekordproduktion von 240.753 oz Gold erreicht. Dies entsprach einem Plus von 71% gegenüber dem Vorjahreszeitraum. 

Da an der Mine Fekola im Südwesten von Mali Ende November 2017 die kommerzielle Produktion erreicht wurde, hat das Unternehmen sein Produktionsziel in diesem Jahr deutlich erhöht: 2018 strebt B2Gold eine konsolidierte Goldproduktion von insgesamt 910.000 - 950.000 oz an. Zudem sollen die All-In Sustaining Costs auf 780-830 $/oz sinken.
