Buenaventura
Announces Three-Day Work Stoppage at the Uchucchacua Mine
LIMA, Peru--(BUSINESS WIRE)--January 11, 2019--
Compañia de Minas
Buenaventura S.A.A.
(“Buenaventura” or “the Company”) (NYSE: BVN;
Lima Stock Exchange: BUE.LM), Peru’s largest publicly-traded precious
metals mining company, today announced that the Contractors’ Union at
Buenaventura’s Uchucchacua mine initiated a strike on January 9, 2019.
The Contractors’ Union claims “unsuitable working conditions” and has
also expressed grievances due to Buenaventura’s dismissal of certain
contracted employees at the Uchucchacua mine, due to the Company’s
conclusion of some services required by contractor companies.
The Peruvian Labor Authority has declared this strike illegal.
Buenaventura will continue to provide updates on related developments or
changes as they occur.
