April 4 (Reuters) - Canadian gold miner Torex Gold Resources
Inc TXG.TO said on Monday it was suspending operations at a
mine in Mexico due to a blockade by three families demanding
payments alleging environmental damages.
"The authorities have been actively involved in resolving
the situation and we hope that their efforts are successful
soon," Chief Executive Fred Stanford said in a statement.
The El Limon-Guajes mine, located in the Guerrero Gold
Belt southwest of Mexico City, started production in December.
