Striking South African gold miners reject latest wage offer

PanARMENIAN.Net - Striking South African gold miners have rejected the industry's latest wage offer, the National Union of Mineworkers (NUM) said on Thursday, Oct 11, dimming hopes that wildcat strikes that have paralyzed the industry could come to an end, Reuters reported.

"This was a final offer from the companies. They said take it or leave it," NUM spokesman Lesiba Seshoka said. "Now that it has been rejected our options have been exhausted."
