ASX- and TSX-listed gold miner OceanaGold has been denied an injunction request to end the unauthorised restraint of its Didipio operations by the provincial government of Nueva Vizcaya, with the miner vowing to appeal the decision in the Philippine Court of Appeals.
Local provincial government units have impeded access to, and from, the mine site since the start of July this year, in response to an unlawful director from the Governor to "restrain any operations" of OceanaGold.
