In a recent Briefing, we reported how Mexico's president, Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador (AMLO), renewed calls for a ban on ALL open-pit mining just days before the disaster in Turkey made international headlines. But it appears his proposal is unlikely to pass, at least in the short term, as his government lacks the two-thirds majority in Congress required to make it fly - Mexican mining sector balks at plan to ban open-pit mines.

The problem for miners, who say the move would generate uncertainty and curtail investment in an industry that fuels 2.5% of Mexico's GDP, is that AMLO's frontrunner/successor, former Mexico City Mayor Claudia Sheinbaum, has jumped on the anti-open-pit bandwagon as part of her platform ahead of a June presidential election.
