Safety concerns involving a section of the San Luis Potosi fluorspar mine in Mexico, owned and operated by Koura, have led to a reduction in production and a declaration of force majeure on supply contracts for consumers, Fastmarkets has learned.
Fastmarkets understands that a geological
issue at the world’s largest fluorspar mine has
caused safety standards at a mine ramp at the site to fall
below the company's guidelines.
