Publish date: 19 June 2019

VANCOUVER, CANADA – An article published online today by Reuters headlined “Congo deploys army to protect China Moly’s copper mine from illegal miners” contains an inaccurate statement about Ivanhoe Mines that could have been avoided had reporter Aaron Ross fact-checked the story with the company before it was published.

Contrary to what was reported in the story, Ivanhoe Mines has not made any statements about illegal miners on its mine development projects in the Democratic Republic of Congo.
