Nevsun lowers 2015 guidance

TSX- and NYSE-listed Nevsun Resources on Friday revised its 2015 production guidance downwards to 140-million to 150-million pounds of copper owing to unplanned plant stoppages during the first half of the year. Output from the Vancouver-headquartered firm’s Bisha mine, in Eritrea, had been hit by multiple unplanned shutdowns as the mill broke down in the first quarter and experienced fuel shortages in the second quarter.
