Zijin Ordered to Respond to Guangdong Lawsuit

(Beijing) -- China's largest gold miner Zijin Mining Group announced on February 14 that it has been ordered by local courts to respond to a lawsuit filed by the Guangdong authorities for damages which resulted after a dam owned by the miner broke last September.

Zijin Mining's two wholly-owned subsidiaries, Xinyi Zijin Mining Co and Xinyi Baoyuan Mining Co., and four other companies involved in the incident have been ordered to respond to the filing of a lawsuit seeking 170 million yuan in compensation to victims affected by the accident.
