Centerra has experienced no operating or production disruptions nor any supply chain interruptions or impact due to covid-19
Centerra operates the Kumtor Mine in the Kyrgyz Republic, the Mount Milligan Mine in British Columbia, Canada and now has a third operating gold mine, the 100%-owned Öksüt Mine in Turkey, which began production in January 2020.
Centerra said it has experienced no operating or production disruptions nor any supply chain interruptions or impact due to covid-19.
However, the company has decided to undertake a reduction of manpower and operations at the Öksüt Project on March 31, 2020 for an initial period of two weeks, in response to recent Turkish government initiatives aimed to reducing the spread of the virus.
