Orezone Temporarily Halts Activities in Burkina Faso

Orezone Gold Corporation (TSX:ORE) announced it has halted activities in Burkina Faso temporarily until the country’s political situation stabilizes. Minor vandalism occurred at the Bomboré camp over the weekend, but all personnel are safe and accounted for.

As quoted in the press release:

The majority of the field investigations required for the ongoing feasibility study have been completed. Social, environmental and geotechnical assessments in progress, although delayed, may not affect the overall completion of the study.  The desktop and design work can continue with our various consultants in North America.  Orezone continues to closely monitor events and will provide further updates along with any adjustments to the time line of the study.
