Who are these peopleWho are the "small number of individuals who have illegally entered the mine site and have been forcefully disrupting the Company from conducting operations in accordance with its life-of-mine plan."
Can the police not take care of these people? Can the company hire private security? Do these people go home at night? Can a fence be put up to keep them out?
Shutting down seems like drastic action. It would be really nice to have more details.
