PERTH (miningweekly.com) – The board of copper miner CuDeco has demanded the immediate resignation of MD Dr Dianmin Chen, after the suspension of operations at the company's flagship Rocklands project.
The Queensland Department of Natural Resources and Mines temporarily suspended operations at Rocklands pending the submission of an updated safety and health management system, after a review found that the current systems were out of date with activities taking place at the mine site.
Inspectors also found that CuDeco had not sufficiently reviewed risks associated with the mine.
Joseph Skrypnuik will continue as acting GM for the Rocklands project until a successor to Chen is appointed.
