OceanaGold said a colleague has been fatally injured at its Didipio Mine in the Philippines.
The employee was found unresponsive on the ground in the vicinity of the paste plant on June 21 and was unable to be revived at the onsite medical clinic.
Next of kin and regulators have been notified and operations at the mine have been voluntarily suspended for approximately 24 hours to allow the workforce to be informed. An investigation is underway.
“We have not yet resumed operations at the paste plant, which is the area where the deceased worker was found. The focus remains to be on supporting the family and our colleagues during this difficult time,” said Investor Relations Manager Marjorie Idio.
