New Gold brings back Rainy River

TSX- and NYSE American-listed New Gold has begun a systematic ramp-up of operations at the Rainy River mine, in Ontario, following the completion of a voluntary 14-day suspension to adhere to provincial and federal Covid-19 guidelines related to out-of-country travel that impacted a significant portion of the local workforce.

Operations will steadily ramp-up over the coming weeks with the overarching priority of ensuring we provide the safest possible environment for employees, the mining company said in a statement on April 3.
