Medusa Mining (ASX: MML, LON: MML) told investors that mining activities have restarted at the Co-O gold mine in the Philippines, following weather enforced disruptions.

The heavy rains that had caused slippages and landslides around the mine have now eased, the company said.

The restart comes after site assessments and structural inspections, as well as general clearing activities around the mine.

Additionally, Medusa said the inclement weather has caused extensive damage to several sections of the haul road between the mine and the mill, so the company is currently assessing alternative routes to overcome the temporary logistical issue.

At present the mine’s new mill is operating at 2,000 tonnes per day, Medusa said.
