VANCOUVER, BC, Nov. 26, 2020 /CNW/ – Orla Mining Ltd. (TSX: OLA) (“Orla” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce the start of earth moving activities at its Camino Rojo Oxide Gold Project (“Camino Rojo”) located in Zacatecas State, Mexico.

.

“The start of earth moving on site marks another important milestone in the development of Camino Rojo made possible through the collective efforts of our team and stakeholders,” stated Jason Simpson, President and Chief Executive Officer of Orla. “Project advancement continues in a controlled manner as we focus on maintaining the health and safety of our personnel.”

.

All permit conditions have been satisfied, including placing of an environmental bond, for site activities to begin. Major contracts for earth moving and civil works have been awarded and detailed engineering is 90% complete. Current activities include mobilization of the earthworks contractor, installation of the construction camp and offices, flora and fauna rescue, as well as site fence erection. Construction of the power line to site continues ahead of schedule thereby reducing some of the diesel generation required during the first year of production. Process plant equipment has started to arrive on site, including crusher and conveyor equipment.

.

Under Mexico’s current COVID-19 legislation, mining and construction are permitted economic activities and the Camino Rojo site has been ramping up in strict compliance with the Mexican Health Authority and Company requirements. Orla has implemented a strict COVID-19 protocol, including rigorous screening and testing programs as it began controlled mobilization to site for construction. Orla continues to maintain robust organization-wide COVID-19 prevention protocols to support the health of employees and local communities. The Company is closely monitoring the potential impacts from the pandemic on areas including equipment delivery and logistics, construction costs and schedule, as well as community and government relations.
