Some key points:
~ Recent reports indicate that the relationship between Mali's military government and Canadian mining companies are growing more strained, particularly around the investments of mining giant Barrick Gold.
~ Tensions between Barrick and the Malian Government keep rising. The Globe and Mail has reported that Mali may be seeking to expropriate the highly lucrative Loulo-Gounkoto gold mine.
~ A delay in permitting for B2Gold's Fekola mine has spooked the industry, MiningMx reporting that Mali's new mineral code puts B2Golds Fekola growth at risk.
