Reuters

MELBOURNE (Reuters) - The government of Guinea has called on Rio Tinto (RIO.AX)(RIO.L) to spell out what exactly it has discovered in an internal investigation into payments made to an adviser in Guinea who helped it secure ownership of the Simandou project.

"The Government of Guinea is demanding a full account from Rio Tinto of any wrongdoing identified in the company's dealings with the Republic of Guinea," Guinea's Minister of Mines and Geology Abdoulaye Magassouba said in an emailed statement.
