covid As per Vern Baker "covid 19 remains our key risk in reaching our 100,000 ounce per annum target.Unfortunately year to date the number of deaths in Brazil have reached pandemic heights.AS A RESULTWE HAVE BEEN EXPERIENCING THE HIGHEST NUMBER OF CASES OCCURRING IN OUR WORK FORCE"
This in my opinion is the cause of the 40% decline.Brazil deaths steadily climbing.Health system broken.Praying for the miners.
