Contractors and employees of gold miner Perseus Mining have returned to the Meyas Sand gold project, in Sudan, however, the miner has deferred a final investment decision (FID) on the project. In late April this year, following an escalation of armed conflict largely in and around Khartoum between the Sudanese Armed Forces (SAF) and an influential militia group, the Rapid Support Force (RSF), Perseus withdrew most of its employees from the Meyas Sand site pending a resolution of the conflict. The company on Wednesday said that it had been actively monitoring the situation in Sudan, along with a team of international security specialists, and although hostilities between the combatants continue in certain parts of Sudan the area in which Meyas Sand is located has not been the scene of conflict, and in fact there have been no reported incidents in an area of approximately 250 000 km2 around the site.
