Buenaventura
Announces Resumption of Operations at Uchucchacua Mine
LIMA, Peru--(BUSINESS WIRE)--November 6, 2017--
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 Buenaventura's Uchucchacua
mine has resumed operations.
As was previously reported, a task force (“mesa de trabajo”) was
established on November 3, 2017 by the Office of Social Affairs of the
Ministry of Energy and Mines with the participation of other public
offices, including representatives from the Prime Minister’s office, in
order to end the conflict to resume negotiations. The Oyon community has
therefore honored its commitment to remove its roadblock, which was
preventing Buenaventura’s team from entering the Uchucchacua Mine site.
Normal operations at Uchucchacua resumed on November 4 2017.
Company Description
Compañía de Minas Buenaventura S.A.A. is Peru’s largest, publicly traded

The Company owns 43.65% of Minera Yanacocha S.R.L (a partnership with
