Asanko optimistic following encouraging Q3 production

Despite three mill motor outages impacting on output in July and August, the third quarter of the year ended on a more positive note for dual-listed Asanko Gold, with the company maintaining its revised guidance of 205 000 oz to 225 000 oz of gold for the full year. While the Asanko Gold Mine (AGM), in Ghana, reported more than 5 000 oz of lost gold production during the first two months of the quarter under review, a “very respectable” 49 293 oz of gold was produced in the three months to September.
