About this update from Fresnillo Plc
[{"type":"text","content":"\n\n Fresnillo Plc\n21 Upper Brook Street\nLondon W1K 7PY\nUnited Kingdom\nwww.fresnilloplc.com\n \n \n15 May 2023\n \n \n Herradura Operational Update\n \n \nFresnillo plc (\"Fresnillo\" or the \"Company\") announces that operations at the Herradura mine operated by the Company's wholly owned subsidiary, Minera Penmont, S. de R.L. de C.V. (\"Penmont\") were temporarily suspended following an illegal stoppage by a very small group of Penmont's unionised personnel. The stoppage, which prevented site access for other workers, was not approved by the union, nor supported by the vast majority of unionised workers at Herradura, with whom Penmont has a very constructive and long-term relationship. Fresnillo confirms the stoppage has now ended and workers have returned safely to the site, with all production activities having re-started immediately. All environmental monitoring and other safety measures were retained during the temporary suspension. The stoppage is not expected to have a material impact on overall production (estimated to be around 1% of total sales volume in terms of annual equivalent gold ounces). As such, there is no change to our 2023 full year production guidance.\n \n \nFor further information, please visit our website www.fresnilloplc.com or contact:\n\n\n\n\n\nFresnillo plc \nLondon Office \nGabriela Mayor, Head of Investor Relations\nMark Mochalski\n\n\nTel: +44 (0)20 7399 2470\n\n\n\n\nMexico City Office\nAna Belem Zárate\n\n\nTel: +52 55 52 79 3206\n\n\n\n\nPowerscourt\n\n\nTel: +44 (0)20 7549 0997\n\n\n\...
