Iamgold trims guidance on Rosebel suspension

Canadian gold miner Iamgold has lowered its production guidance for the year, to reflect the suspension of mining activities at the Rosebel mine, in Suriname, where an illegal miner died last week, and lower production from Westwood, in Canada.

The new attributable guidance is between 765 000 oz and 810 000 oz, compared with the previous forecast of 810 000 oz to 870 000 oz.
