Orla Mining Resumes Operations at Camino Rojo Gold Mine
Operations at Orla Mining's Camino Rojo gold mine in Zacatecas, Mexico have fully resumed after an illegal blockade ended on June 5. The site had halted production earlier in the week, prompting Orla to warn of further steps while maintaining essential activities. Negotiations with union representatives and Mexican labour authorities confirmed the blockade's illegality, allowing onsite dialogue and bonus talks to restart. The restart reduces near-term supply risk at a mine forecast to produce 110,000–120,000 oz of gold in 2026. Market reaction remains supportive for Orla shares but is expected to have limited impact on broader XAUUSD fundamentals.
