Canada’s IAMGOLD (TSX: IMG) has triggered force majeure to suspend operations at its Rosebel Gold Mine in Suriname because some unionized employees have started a work stoppage.
In a press release, the miner said the strike is a breach of the Collective Labour Agreement that prescribes a number of procedures in the event of a dispute between Rosebel and Rosebell Werknemers Organisatie. The company also said it has prepared legal actions against the union.
