Semafo lowers Mana mine guidance following pit wall collapse

TSX-listed gold miner Semafo on Tuesday reported a pit wall failure at the Wona pit of its Mana mine, in Burkina Faso, and advised that it expected the mine to produce 40 000 oz to 50 000 oz less gold this year as a result.

The company confirmed that, at the time of the incident, no mining was under way in the area and that no one was injured.
