It is that the main union at Guinea's CBG has suspended its strike ahead of negotiations on grievances due next week.
It may be noted that a strike call was launched over work conditions but a CBG source said it was only partially followed and production was unaffected.
Mr Oumar Ly secretary general of CBG's main union told Reuters that "We decided to suspend the strike ahead of negotiations which should start on Tuesday." He added that the strike was followed at CBG's Sangaredi mine but not at the Kamsar mine.
CBG is a JV between Alcoa and Rio Tinto and is expected to produce more than 13 million tonnes of bauxite this year or 80% of Guinea's total output.
