Guatemalan lower court issues ruling on Escobal mining license
The Supreme Court of Guatemala has issued a provisional decision with respect to an action brought by the anti-mining organization, CALAS, against Guatemala's Ministry of Energy and Mines (MEM), alleging that MEM violated the Xinca Indigenous people's right of consultation in advance of granting the Escobal mining license to Tahoe Resources' Guatemalan subsidiary, Minera San Rafael. The provisional decision suspends the Escobal mining license of Minera San Rafael while the action is being reviewed by the court, even though no Xinca representative or community is currently participating in the CALAS lawsuit against MEM.
