To re-start operations, all mining companies must register their health and safety protocol plan (Plan para la vigilancia, prevencion y control de COVID-19 en el trabajo) with the Ministry of Health. On June 5th, 2020, Dynacor received approval for its health and safety protocol plan from the Peruvian Ministry of Health.
On June 4th, 2020, the Peruvian government published a decree approving phase two re-opening of economic activities. The new decree includes medium, small scale miners and formalized ASMs. Large scale miners (more than 5000 TPD) were granted re-opening permission in May 2020 when the government approved phase one.
On June 6th, 2020, the Corporation partially resumed operations with expectations of a return to full operating capacity of 300 TPD (tonnes per day) before the end of the third quarter, 2020. The resumption of ore purchasing and processing, together with returning employees and suppliers, will abide by the Corporation’s government-approved health and safety protocol. These cautionary measures comply with the Ministry of Health’s guidelines of which include the adequate provision of PPE (personal protective equipment) for all employees and suppliers. In addition, the Corporation will screen all individuals entering the plant, including temperature checks, mandatory social distancing with re-organized working and supplier accommodations, enhanced disinfecting, and plan of preparedness in the event of a suspected or confirmed case of COVID-19.
From March 16th to June 5th, 2020, Dynacor's ore purchasing operations were put on hold as all ASM activity was prohibited by order of the Peruvian government.
