Through its acquisition of Guyana Goldfields Inc (GGI), Chinese mining company, Zijin Mining Group Co has promised the Guyana Government that it would retain at least 200 to 300 of its former employees as it prepares for another major expansion next year, according to Minister of Natural Resources Vickram Bharrat.
“The new CEO made a commitment that they will keep about 200 to 300 persons and from a government perspective… that was a positive move,” the minister told Stabroek News on Monday.
“They are also looking for some expansion…but they have to get requisite permits and approvals. Once they go through that and approvals are granted they said they can begin next year,” he added.
