ABIDJAN – Côte d'Ivoire produced a record 32.478 t of gold in 2019, up 35% from 24.06 t in 2018, data from the mine and geology ministry seen by Reuters showed on Tuesday.

The rise was partly explained by the start of production in the northern mine of Sissingue operated by Perseus Mining, mining industry officials said.

The country's manganese output was also 49% higher at 1.18-million tonnes in 2019, up from 791 911 t in 2018.

Côte d'Ivoire, the world’s top cocoa producer, is seeking to develop its mining sector to diversify its sources of income. The country expects to reach 50 t by 2025.
