Perseus Mining Gold Production to Fall

Perseus Mining Limited (ASX:PRU, TSX:PRU) announced that gold production at its Edikan Gold Mine in Ghana is now likely to be 49,000 ounces for the December 2012 Quarter.

As quoted in the press release:

The production shortfall resulted, principally, from low crusher output from the time of the November guidance until the planned December maintenance shutdown, followed by a much longer than expected shutdown of eight days in December for the liner change and remedial work.
