Following the collapse of a public bridge over the Zamora River in Los Encuentros two weeks ago, local community members erected the blockade on the public road leading to the mine.

Throughout the 15-day blockade, operations continued. Lundin is maintaining its 2020 guidance.

The company announced that it will be footing the $2.5 million bill for the bridge replacement.

Fruta del Norte is Ecuador’s largest gold-silver mine. Lundin officially opened it in November 2019, and the first doré bar was produced on November 16. Production kicked off just two days later.

The operation is expected to produce 4.6 million ounces of gold over a 15-year mine life.
