Australia's Legend Mining has resumed a drilling programme at its Ngovayang iron ore concession in Cameroon after it was suspended last year due to rain, the firm said on Friday.
Legend said in September it would have to suspend the 5,000 metre drilling programme for at least three weeks after heavy rain. The Ngovayang project is one of three iron ore developments under way in Cameroon, which is keen to to diversify its oil and cocoa-driven economy.
The others are the 35 million tonnes per annum Mbalam project developed by Sundance Resources in the south-east of the country and African Aura's Nkout prospect north-west of Mbalam. (Reporting by Tansa Musa; editing by David Lewis, sourced Reuters)
