Mining firm Noventa says that operations have suffered from a "plague" of beetles as a result of tropical storms which have hit the firm's Marropino site in Mozambique over the past 10 days. The Rove Beetle is very poisonous and around 30% of the workforce at Marropino have been affected by the severe skin and eye irritations caused by coming into contact with the insects. The firm was keen to emphasise that an effective treatment has now been administered and a pesticide is being sprayed to erradicate the infestation. Progress at Marropino has been delayed and is set to start in March, a delay of around a month. Shares dropped 2.78% to 17.5p.
