Red Back Mining Inc.
Prospecting in Africa is golden for Red Back Mining. The gold producer operates two gold mines in West Africa -- the Tasiast Gold Mine in Mauritania (100% owned) and the Chirano Gold Mine in Ghana (in which Red Back has a 90% interest, with the government of Ghana holding the rest). Red Back produces about 250,000 ounces annually and has around 3 million ounces of proved and probable reserves. Red Back Mining company also has exploration projects elsewhere in Ghana and Mauritania and holds a minority interest in West African assets held by the Australian Mineral Deposits Limited. Toronto-based Kinross Gold acquired Red Back in 2010 in a $7 billion stock deal.
