IGO’s Year of Hell + the Return of David Flanagan!
Plenty of mining news for us to sink our teeth into in our final day for the year (we’ve got some cracking interviews to release in the coming days!) First cab off the rank is IGO (IGO), who’ve capped a tough year with another poor announcement regarding their Cosmos operation. Next up we couldn’t help but discuss the news that David Flanagan is back in the arena with Arrow Minerals (AMD) looking to build something big and very good in Guinea. The AVL/TMT got some airtime as AVL chucked in a best & final sweetener to get the deal done, while West African Resources (WAF) released a maiden resource at M5 South to add ounces at their Sanbrado operation.
