Temporary stoppage at the Pallancata operation in Peru
Hochschild Mining plc ("Hochschild" or "the Company") reports
that its Pallancata mine in Peru has temporarily stopped production
due to a road blockade by members of a local community demanding
the renegotiation of existing agreements for land easements. In
keeping with the Company's approach to active stakeholder
engagement, discussions with relevant parties, which have been
facilitated by the Government, are ongoing.
Despite the temporary stoppage at Pallancata, the Company's
production and cost guidance for 2016 are not affected.
The Company will update the market as appropriate.
