Industrial gold production in Mali is expected to fall by 8.3% year-on-year to 59.77 t this year compared with 2019 due to falling output at several mines, Mali’s mines and petroleum ministry said on Wednesday. It said total gold production is expected at 65.7 t in 2020, including 6 t from the artisanal, or small-scale mining sector, compared with 71.1 t a year ago.
