MMG may halt Peru Las Bambas mine operations by Feb 20 after latest blockade
MMG said on Monday that production at its Las Bambas copper mine in Peru may stop by February 20 after a local community blocked again a road used by the miner, causing the company to curtail operations. The Chinese-owned mine has been a flashpoint of protests and road blockades since it started functioning in 2016, with operations last suspended in December due to a similar blockade.
