Death overshadows Saracen success – Finlayson

Gold miner Saracen Mineral Holdings has reported a strong production quarter, but said that the performance was overshadowed by the fatality at the Carosue Dam operation, in Western Australia.

“Saracen expresses its deepest condolences to the family, friends and colleagues of the late person. A full investigation by the Department of Mines, Industry Regulation and Safety is underway. Saracen is fully committed to establishing the events leading up to the accident,” MD Raleigh Finlayson said on Tuesday.
