IN BRIEF: Hummingbird issues step-in notice regarding Kouroussa mine

Hummingbird Resources PLC - gold producer with operations in Mali, Guinea and Liberia - Says continued to engage with Ivory Coast-based Corica Mining Services, which had suspended mining activities on March 17, citing contractual disputes.

Hummingbird says it is progressing with the restart and ramp up of mining activities at the mine.
