VANCOUVER, BC and TORONTO, ON, April 26,
2024 /CNW/ - The law firms of KND Complex
Litigation and Hammerco Lawyers LLP have commenced a proposed class
action on behalf shareholders of SSR Mining Inc. (TSX/NASDAQ: SSRM,
ASX: SSR) ("SSR Mining"). The proposed class action
has been filed in the Supreme Court of British Columbia, and it has been brought
against SSR Mining and certain of its current or former directors
and senior officers.
This proposed class action arises out of the tragic landslide at
the heap leach pad of the company's Çöpler Gold Mine in Türkiye,
which occurred on February 13,
2024. The incident resulted in the loss of the lives of
several of the mine's employees, and the suspension of the mine's
operations.
This proposed class action has been brought on behalf of all
persons and entities, wherever they may reside or may be domiciled,
who held common shares or its equivalents of SSR Mining as at the
time that the company disclosed the tragic Çöpler incident on
February 13, 2024, at 9:02 a.m. Eastern Time, excluding the company's
insiders.
This proposed class action alleges that the
directors and senior officers of SSR Mining violated their
overarching duty of stewardship and oversight, and failed to manage
crucial and mission critical aspects of the company's business
appropriate to the risks. As a result, Çöpler's heap leach
pad was operated in dangerous conditions, which led to the tragic
landslide. The incident has materially impacted SSR Mining's
current operations, and has exposed its business to further
significant risks. The lawsuit seeks to recover compensation
for SSR Mining shareholders who have incurred damages and losses on
their investment.
