June 1, 2026
Orla Mining reported that operations at its Camino Rojo gold mine in Zacatecas have been temporarily halted due to what it describes as an illegal work stoppage and blockade by unionized workers. The dispute centers on productivity bonuses and PTU profit-sharing payments. Orla says it paid the maximum PTU required by law and is working with union leaders and labor authorities to resolve the issue and resume operations.
