The company saw a decrease in production from its Pickstone-Peerless gold mine in Zimbabwe and the Manaila polymetallic mine in Romania, due to the removal of oxide ore and higher pre-stripping activity. At Pickstone-Peerless, for the quarter to the end of September, the amount of ore mined increased by 3% to 104,156 tonnes from 100,855 tonnes the prior quarter and 4% rise in ore milled. However, gold production fell by 8.0% to 6,397 ounces from 6,955 ounces in the second quarter, as did gold sold, at 6,519 ounces from 7,087 ounces. Vast said the fall in production was in line with its strategy to ensure that no oxide ore is left behind in the pit, as processing both the oxide and sulphide ore is less efficient, with recoveries sub-optimal. Once the oxide ore is gone, the company will focus on the higher-grade sulphide ore. ----------
