Almaden Files Request for Arbitration Against Mexico with International Centre for Settlement of Investment Disputes
“We are problem solvers and sought to resolve each challenge presented by Mexico, up until the point the Mexican government cancelled our concessions. This leaves us with no alternative but to pursue international arbitration. We regret this outcome for shareholders, who may still see some benefit from the discovery as we pursue this arbitration. However I lament most heavily this outcome for local people, whom we have worked very closely with over the past two decades, and who have become our friends. They now stand to gain nothing from the Ixtaca project which was developed and designed with their assistance.”
