Blockade over alleged missing miners halts Zijin’s Colombia mine production.
Zijin owns the Buriticá gold project, located in the middle Cauca belt in the northwest region of Colombia.
Those holding the blockades, which began on Aug. 12, are demanding the national mining agency verify whether any miners are trapped, Zijin said, adding it supports an inspection as soon as possible.“The mining rescue team will take charge,” a spokesperson for the mining agency told Reuters. “Today the team is prepared to enter, we’re waiting on the arrival of the miners who will guide the inspection of the tunnels.
The activities, controlled by the Clan del Golfo crime gang, are a safety issue for the surrounding community and affect Zijin’s output, a Reuters investigation last year showed.
