KINSHASA, Feb 7 (Reuters) – Canadian miner Banro is looking to sell its Namoya gold mine in eastern Congo at a significant discount, its chairman told Reuters on Friday, blaming the government’s failure to improve security in the area following a kidnapping of staff last year.
Repeated attacks by local militias forced Banro Corporation to suspended operations at several of its sites in Democratic Republic of Congo in September.
