TORONTO, July 6, 2015 /PRNewswire/ - IAMGOLD Corporation
("IAMGOLD" or the "Company") provides clarification regarding the
vote by the Transitional Assembly on an updated Mining Code in
Burkina Faso. While the Code
has not yet been formalized into law, it reduces regulatory
uncertainty, creates an innovative community development fund, and,
importantly, respects clauses in existing Mining Conventions.
As a result, IAMGOLD does not expect a material impact
on its Essakane Mine, as it has fiscal stability clauses in
its existing Mining Convention.
