Minergy Ltd has resumed production at the troubled Masama Coal Mine in Medie and anticipates reaching full-scale output and sales by the end of June this year, BusinessWeek has learnt.

Masama’s new mining contractor, Meropa Resources, a wholly citizen-owned mining contractor, is currently mobilising while mining operations restarted in February this year.

Minergy’s operations were temporarily stopped last March after a dispute with the previous mining contractor, Jarcon Opencast Mining, over payable arrears.
