VANCOUVER, BC (By Aris Mining, 23.Sep.2025, Words: 231) — Aris Mining Corporation confirms an incident that occurred on 22 Sep. 2025 at the La Reliquia Mine, a formalized third-party operation located within Aris Mining’s Segovia title, but outside of Aris Mining’s infrastructure.
A collapse occurred in La Reliquia’s main shaft access, with 23 workers underground at the time, including 5 Aris Mining employees carrying out monthly review functions. All workers are in good health, regular telephone communication has been maintained, and food, water, and ventilation are being delivered safely while rescue work progresses.
Rescue operations are well advanced and being carried out through the coordinated efforts of Aris Mining’s Brigade of Prevention and Emergency Control and La Reliquia’s workforce. Aris Mining’s technical staff and contractors are supporting rescue efforts. The families of our employees have been informed directly and are being kept up to date throughout the process. Based on current progress, we expect the workers to be brought safely to surface within the next 24 hours.
The La Reliquia Mine has been a partner of the Segovia Operations since 2014 with about 60 employees and provides a small portion of mill feed that supports overall gold production.
Neil Woodyer, CEO, commented “The safety of our people is always our highest priority. We commend the Aris Mining rescue team for their professionalism and swift, precise response. We will provide updates as the situation is fully resolved.”
