JOHANNESBURG Oct 15 (Reuters) – Bullion producer Gold
Fields has suspended all output at its KDC operations
in South Africa after 8,500 more workers had joined an illegal
strike, the company said on Monday.
“Production at the entire KDC has now been suspended,” it
said in a statement.
KDC includes the KDC West and East mines. Around 19,500 of
the operation’s total workforce of around 26,700 are now part of
the wildcat strike, Gold Fields added.
