Alta Zinc’s Gorno suspension

In Italy, a nationwide lockdown has interfered with mining operations, as mine workers are unable to follow what the government calls “smart working practices”, such as working from home. As a result, Italian operations are being temporarily shut down, such as Alta Zinc’s Gorno project, a zinc mine in Lombardy with around 3.3 million tonnes of zinc reserves in indicated and inferred resources.

While Alta Zinc noted that the outbreak had not been as severe around its mine as in other parts of the country, the nationwide quarantine has gone into full effect to prevent the spread of the virus, affecting all parts of the country. The miner has left its equipment in place, having been in the process of completing drilling and exploration work at the time of the lockdown, but it is unclear when, if ever, it will be able to resume work.
