    Kinross Gold (TSX: K; NYSE: KGC) has temporarily suspended mill operations at its Tasiast project in western Mauritania after a fire in the mill on Monday which has been extinguished, the company said Tuesday. There were no injuries and mining continues as usual. The Toronto-based company says it’s investigating the fire’s cause and assessing the damage and any impacts on the site. Initial investigations show the blaze was limited to the semi-autogenous grinding mill’s discharge area.
