MONTERREY, MEXICO (By Isaac Silvestre, Editores Latin Petroleum, 12.Oct.2026, Words: 120) — The rescue of Altos Hornos de México (AHMSA) and its subsidiary Minera del Norte (MINOSA) requires approximately $3bn over a period of up to 15 years.

This, according to calculations by Napoleón Gómez Urrutia, leader of the National Union of Mining, Metallurgical, Steel and Similar Workers of the Mexican Republic, the daily El Financiero reported on 12 Oct. 2026.

Napoleón Gómez Urrutia’s estimates are based on AHMSA’s $1.8bn debt to its creditors, plus another $600mn owed to its suppliers and outstanding payments to its workers, the daily said.
