The World's Top Mining Companies

There was a 3 percent rise in global gold mining in the third quarter of 2009 to 659 tonnes. The main contributor to this was the increase in gold production in Australia, with Argentina and Mexico producing a high volume for the year. There was a production decline in Indonesia, Peru and Russia however the global gold mine production still increased as a whole. The gold value also hit a record high with many gold buying companies encouraging customers thinking of selling gold to 'sell your gold whilst the value is high'. More information: more info
