Barrick averts strike at Mali gold complex after union deal

Original: Barrick averts strike at Mali gold complex after union deal (B:NYSE)

Barrick Gold has reached an agreement with unions, avoiding a strike at its Loulo-Gounkoto gold complex in Mali. The deal defuses a labor dispute at one of the company's most important operations, as Barrick continues to face broader tensions with the Malian government over taxes, detained staff and operational restrictions at the site.

Why now: The strike was averted amid ongoing high-profile tensions between Barrick and Mali's government, making any resolution at the complex newsworthy.
