This Wednesday the Sahuaripa
mine in Sonora was robbed by a group of five armed men, who subdued security
personnel to extract doré bars, an alloy of gold and silver.
The Alamos Gold company stated
in a press release that the criminals carried high-powered weapons with which
they subdued the mine guards and later fled in a small plane.
The information indicates that
everything happened when the doré bars were loaded onto the plane.
The assault lasted about 10
minutes, according to the statements of the guards, they extracted the bars while
a Cessna-206 type plane landed on the runway of the mine where they fled.
According to the company, the stolen ore bars are insured against theft. The Mulatos Mine
activated its security protocols and notified the corresponding authorities to
locate the aircraft and the stolen mineral.
Just over two weeks ago,
another assault occurred on a mining company in the state.
Two armored trucks carrying
gold and silver from the La Herradura mine, owned by the Penmont company, were
assaulted on March 22 by an armed command in Caborca, Sonora.
The vehicles of the SEPSA
company were intercepted by the criminals at around 2:00 p.m., a dump truck
went through them to block the path that leads from the mine to the federal
highway No. 2, at the height of the El Diamante ejido.
The six employees who were
traveling in the trucks were beaten, one of them with minor injuries, while the
rest were treated by company doctors who, after reviewing their health,
released them.
The amount of the stolen was
not disclosed, but according to a statement issued by the Penmont mining
company, a subsidiary of Grupo Fresnillo, the armored trucks carried doré bars,
an alloy of gold and silver, which "are insured according to the security protocols
that the company follows”.

They are always robbing them minds I remember not that long ago they stole millions in gold bars from 3 poorly harmed guards that were transporting it in a van what a joke me personally think that it’s the mines owners getting payed 2x 1 from the insurance and the other from the sale of the gold it’s a easy for them to just wait and make it look like they just mined it there’s no way to tell if they just melt it and stamp it again
ReplyDelete"To date, Mulatos has generated approximately $420 million in free cash flow."
ReplyDeleteThere is nothing free about mining.
Try that in Neveda doubt they would get away If you see a plane landing at your mine knowing The Owners/ CEOs arnt due in You would think alarms would be going off
ReplyDeleteBuy hey this is Mexico
I wonder if Insurance companys are involoved Seems with so much theft they would Demand protocols in place
to make sure they do not lose so much Those bars are heavy not easy to carry Maybe stealing from your own company ??
not much would suprise me at this point
They assaulted the place first and while the assault was going on is when the plane landed
DeleteMining On the US is not a good business because miners want to make 100 dollars an hour mining coal, and 1000 usd per hour mining gold...
Delete--Their unions only exist to funnel their votes to candidates that will approve their opiate prescriptions and welfare checks and to support themselves with government subsidies.
Sounds like an inside job.
ReplyDeleteAlong with the sale of a mine which clearly indicates its estimated value more than its purchase.
German Larrea of Grupo Mexico may be nationalizing the gold since he can't nationalize the Canadian Mineras, be went to become a billionaire when the STMMSSRM Secretary General Napolion Gomez Urrutia got persecuted by FECAL and had to escape to CANADA...His Daddy and former secretario Napolion Gomez Sada who made napito secretary was never persecuted by the PRIISTA REGIMES, german larrea knows no boundaries.

This make great movie. Congratulations u got away, next time the gold miner should hire Blackwater, that's security. Or maybe they were Blackwater. With slack of security in Mexico, it had to be easy. Kinda funny
ReplyDeleteAcademi my friend
DeleteAmlo give 10% to the poor, 40% for u, send me the other 50%. Go Morena
ReplyDeleteLiterally, like this is the shit you see in a movie
ReplyDeleteThe mine announced before this incident that it was suspending operations as a result of the pandemic - https://www.kitco.com/news/2020-04-02/Alamos-Gold-temporarily-suspends-mining-at-Mulatos-guidance-suspended.html
ReplyDelete10 million dollars for 420 million, makes one hell of a profit depending on the amount invested in operations.
ReplyDeleteThis is one more reason why the people stay poor. If the people had the money, they wouldn't have to steal.
8:05 FECAL, FOX, SALINAS, EPN, ZEDILLO, the neoliberals sold everything they could not steal at fire sale prices, for kickbacks deposited directly in their favorite bank accounts...that is the transparency you get from satraps selling you neoliberal russian oligarch styled BS, all the while accusing the cartels that work their drug traffick8ng for them and their associate money laundering banks.
DeleteTransporting the gold bars in a 1977 red van with white racing stripes on the sides, no guards and on a desolate road.
ReplyDelete"The Mulatos Mine was acquired for $10 million in 2003 and grown to become a consistent gold producer and significant cash flow generator. To date, Mulatos has generated approximately $420 million in free cash flow." That was a sweet deal for the buyer, over 24 million a year for the last 17 years selling minerals, or possibly selling 420*?
ReplyDelete*It started as the police code for Marijuana Smoking in Progress. After local heads heard of the police call, they started using the expression 420 when referring to herb - Let's Go 420, dude!” ..
