Operations at Peru's Las Bambas Copper Mine at Risk Due to Protests
February 2, 2023--Researched by Amir Richani for Industrial Info Resources (Sugar Land, Texas)--Protests against Peru's new government, including calls for the president's resignation and new elections, are impacting mining operations in the world's second-largest copper-producing nation. The Las Bambas mine, operated by MMG (Melbourne, Australia), is one of the latest to suffer setbacks.
MMG issued a statement Monday that its operations are at risk of shutting down due to the protests and road blockades spreading across Peru. The mine has been forced to scale back its operations amid a lack of critical supplies.
