Persistence Gold Halts Yantai Output but Presses Ahead With Global Expansion Plans

Persistence Resources Group Ltd ( (HK:2489) ) just unveiled an announcement.

Persistence Gold Group has temporarily halted production at its Yantai Zhongjia and Yantai Mujin gold mining subsidiaries in Yantai after local authorities ordered all non-involved mining enterprises to cease operations following a severe accident at another mine in the area. The group is cooperating with regulators and will only determine the timing of resumption once official written notice is received, creating near-term operational uncertainty for its China-based output.

At the same time, the company is pushing ahead with its growth strategy by assessing additional gold mine acquisitions and joint ventures funded by proceeds from a recent share placing. Company representatives are in South Africa attending major industry conferences to engage with potential partners, underscoring its intention to diversify and expand its asset base despite the temporary production suspension at existing operations.
