Canadian Firm Orla Mining Faces Allegations of Cartel Links at Mexican Gold Mine
Orla Mining, a Canadian company operating the Camino Rojo gold mine in Mexico, is under scrutiny following allegations that its local management collaborated with a drug cartel to influence union activities. According to former union members, the company ignored complaints made through its workplace ethics hotline about management's alleged dealings with the Sinaloa cartel. These allegations have prompted a review by Mexican and U.S. authorities, as well as a labor panel under the Canada-U.S.-Mexico Agreement (CUSMA), which found violations of workers' rights at the mine.
