According to Mining News Pro - Production at Cerro Corona will also be impacted by covid-19 related stoppages in Q2 2020, the company said.

The miner reported group gold production for the quarter ended March 31 was 537,000 ounces, down from 542,000 ounces a year earlier, with all regions tracking the annual guidance.

Gold Fields said that the impact of the pandemic has been relatively muted on operations, with production only slightly affected.

“However, the situation is fluid and there is the possibility of further lockdowns and restrictions in the countries in which we have a presence which may lead to production disruptions in future,” the company said.

The company’s stock on the NYSE traded at $8.05 per share, up 10,51% on Thursday. Gold Fields’ market value is $6.93 billion.
