Pan African Resources PLC, down 6.0% to 17.37p, 12-month range 15.72p-24.5p. Says its first half gold production dwindled, owing mainly to a poor performance at its Barberton mines in Mpumalanga, South Africa. The Rosebank-headquartered gold producer reports a 15% decline in gold output to 92,307 ounces for the first six months to December, from 108,085 ounces a year prior. The underground Barberton operations experienced a number of headwinds including inflationary increases in labour and energy costs, increasing depth and underground travel times at Fairview Mine, and depletion of the high-grade 42 Level block at Consort Mine.
