JOHANNESBURG Feb 6 (Reuters) – South Africa’s Harmony
Gold has cut its full-year production target by 13
percent due to safety stoppages, its chief executive said on
Monday.
Harmony, the country’s third-largest bullion producer, now
expects to produce 1.35 million ounces, down from its previous
target of 1.55 million ounces, Graham Briggs told Reuters in a
telephone interview.
The company produced 1.3 million ounces in 2011.
