MONROVIA – Avesoro Holdings, which is one of the major investors in Liberia through its subsidiaries Bea Mountain Mining Corporation and MNG Gold Liberia Inc., condemns in the strongest terms the unethical and malicious article published against it on March 1, 2021 in the Independent Probe Newspaper titled “Massive Turkish Onslaught on Liberia’s Gold Industry Imminent Mineral Depletion Looms”. However, the publisher of the Independent Probe Newspaper showed absolutely no regard for the very tenets he pledged to promote as a journalist, by making allegations that are malicious and libelous on its face. This shows that the paper’s aim is to blackmail the company or undermine public confidence in our lawful operations in the Republic of Liberia. Avesoro is operating two largest commercial gold mines in Liberia and is always committed to explore and create new opportunities for people and the development of the country. Meanwhile, we would like to inform the public that all mining and exploration activities ongoing in Liberia are within the authority granted the company by the Mineral Development Agreements.
