Feb 18 (Reuters) -
Canada-listed gold miner SSR Mining said late on Sunday that its environmental permit for a gold mine in eastern Turkey has been revoked.
The operations at the company's Copler mine will remain suspended until further notice, the company said.
The developments come after a landslide at the gold mine that left at least eight miners missing and sparked a more than 50% drop in its Toronto-listed shares.
Search and rescue operations to locate the nine missing workers at the mine are continuing, the company said.
The mine produced 56,768 ounces of gold in the third-quarter of last year and is SSR's second-largest producing gold mine, operating since 2010.
