Resolute Mining, an Australian gold mining company, has agreed to pay €152 million to the Malian government to resolve a tax dispute. The payment comes after the company's CEO and several other employees were detained in Mali for over a week.
The dispute arose from a disagreement over taxes owed by Resolute Mining's Syama gold mine in Mali. The Malian government had accused the company of underpaying taxes, leading to the detention of its employees.
Resolute Mining has stated that it will pay half of the fine immediately from its existing cash reserves, with the remaining half to be paid in the coming months. The company has also confirmed that its detained employees have been released and are now back in Australia.
This settlement marks a significant development in the ongoing dispute between Resolute Mining and the Malian government. It is a testament to the company's commitment to resolving the issue and ensuring the continued operation of its Syama gold mine.
The payment also highlights the importance of maintaining strong relationships between mining companies and the governments of the countries in which they operate. It is crucial for both parties to work together to ensure a mutually beneficial and sustainable mining industry.
