Canadian miners Equinox Gold and Leagold, which last month announced their planned at-market merger, have achieved their respective production targets in 2019 and are gearing up for a “transformational year” that will transform Equinox into “one of the world’s top gold producers”. Equinox produced 201 000 oz from the Mesquite mine in the US and Aurizona in Brazil, while Leagold produced 375 445 oz from its four wholly owned gold mines, namely the Los Filos mine complex in Mexico, and the Fazenda, RDM and Pilar mines in Brazil.
