    B2Gold moving forward with investment of $10m at the Fekola gold complex in Mali

    The decision follows a settlement with the Malian Government over its 2023 mining code, which has reduced the risk of disruption.

    B2Gold CEO Clive Johnson said: “From a B2Gold perspective, we have seen a reduction in risk since the signing of our settlement agreement.”

    “We have expatriate employees that move in and out of the country regularly, including some of the mine management, so there is no reason to think that any detention would ever be contemplated as it relates to B2Gold,” Johnson added.
