Kinross Gold expects to suspend Chilean mine in Q4

Kinross Gold Corp said on Wednesday it expected to suspend operations at a Chilean gold mine in the fourth quarter as it posted a second-quarter loss that exceeded forecasts. The world's fifth-largest gold miner by output said in its earnings report that it expected to halt mining at Maricunga and start rinsing residual gold from the heap-leach pads – equipment used to extract the metal.
