Russia is working with authorities in the impoverished West African nation of Guinea to settle a labor dispute that hit output of gold at a mine run by Russian company Nordgold, Moscow said on Tuesday. The foreign ministry said a labor dispute at the Lefa mine, where around 8 tons of gold were mined in 2022, had hampered work and threatened the safety of employees. Union activists had blocked access to the mine and damaged property, it said.
