Fortuna Silver Mines Inc. (TSX: FVI) is celebrating the first gold pour at the Séguéla Mine, in Côte d’Ivoire. The first pour took place as the mine transitions from commissioning to the ramp-up phase.
“Séguéla has produced its first gold, becoming Fortuna’s fifth operating mine. The team at Séguéla has performed phenomenally and delivered on-time and on-budget, a testament to their professionalism and dedication in bringing this asset from exploration to production,” CEO, Jorge A. Ganoza, said.
“Séguéla now enters into the ramp-up phase where management plans to achieve nominal rate of production during the third quarter.
“Séguéla will be a cornerstone asset in Fortuna’s portfolio for years to come, and we look forward to unlocking the value it brings to all of our stakeholders.”
