Fortuna Silver temporarily halts operations at its San Jose mine in Mexico due to illegal blockade

- Fortuna Silver Mines said on Tuesday that a small group of union employees, representing 15% of the mine and plant workforce, have illegally blockaded access to the San Jose mine in Mexico.

“The illegal blockade arose after this group of workers did not agree with the estimated amount the company is to distribute among the workforce as part of the worker´s profit sharing entitlement. Profit sharing is a transparent calculation and is payable in accordance with Mexican legislation. The blockaders demand the company increases profit sharing participation beyond what is stipulated by law,” Fortuna Silver said.
