JOHANNESBURG (Reuters) -
Village Main Reef, one of South Africa's smaller gold producers, said on Tuesday that employees at its Buffelsfontein Gold Mine had embarked on an illegal strike.
The company, which did not disclose the number of employees on strike, said it planned to seek a court order to force the miners back to work.
