Orla Mining Provides Initial Update on Pit Wall Event at Camino Rojo
VANCOUVER, BC, July 24, 2025 /CNW/ - Orla Mining Ltd. (TSX: OLA) (NYSE: ORLA) ("Orla" or the "Company") is providing an update on the recent pit wall event that occurred at its Camino Rojo Oxide Mine in Zacatecas, Mexico. Pit Wall Event and Immediate Response As reported on July 23, 2025, Camino Rojo experienced an uncontrolled material movement on the temporary north wall within the open pit. There were no injuries, nor was there any damage to equipment or the environment as a result of the event. Ramp access to the pit remains unaffected but open pit mining operations were temporarily suspended while the Company conducts the necessary geotechnical assessments to ensure safe remediation and the eventual resumption of mining activities. These assessments are being conducted by both the Company's internal team and third-party consultants. Completion of the initial geotechnical assessments is anticipated in the coming week, with the remediation plan to be outlined thereafter. Material Volume and Recovery Outlook Initial estimates indicate that approximately 390,000 tonnes of material moved from the north wall into the pit. It is expected that this material would be crushed and stacked on the heap leach pad in the medium term. Ongoing Operations and Stockpile Management Until in-pit mining operations resume, the Company will continue crushing and stacking run-of-mine ore and stockpile material on the heap leach pad. This strategy is expected to mitigate short-term impact on production. The crushing circuit, stacking, and process plant continue to operate. The current stockpile is estimated at 2,243,000 tonnes with an average gold grade of 0.32 g/t. As a reminder, the Company's mining throughput capacity is approximately 50,000 to 60,000 tonnes per day, while its crushing throughput capacity is approximately 18,000 to 19,000 tonnes per day. As the Company completes the necessary geotechnical assessments and refines the timeline for safe restart of mining operations, it will provide any updates to full-year production and cost guidance. About Orla Mining Ltd. Orla's corporate strategy is to acquire, develop, and operate mineral properties where the Company's expertise can substantially increase stakeholder value. The Company has three material projects, consisting of two operating mines and one development project, all 100% owned by the Company: (1) Camino Rojo, in Zacatecas State, Mexico, an operating gold and silver open-pit and heap leach mine. The property covers over 139,000 hectares which contains a large oxide and sulphide mineral resource, (2) Musselwhite Mine, in Northwestern Ontario, Canada, an underground gold mine that has been in operation for over 25 years and produced over 6 million ounces of gold, with a long history of resource growth and conversion, and (3) South Railroad, in Nevada, United States, a feasibility-stage, open pit, heap leach gold project located on the Carlin trend in Nevada. The technical reports for the Company's material projects are available on Orla's website at and on SEDAR+ and EDGAR under the Company's profile at and respectively.

Orla Mining Reports Pit Wall Event at Camino Rojo
VANCOUVER, BC, /CNW/ - Orla Mining Ltd. (TSX: OLA; NYSE: ORLA) ("Orla" or the "Company") reports that an uncontrolled material movement event occurred today on the pit wall at its Camino Rojo Oxide Mine in Zacatecas, Mexico. The event occurred along the temporary north wall of the open pit, which included ore material expected to be mined as part of the ultimate open pit. There were no injuries or equipment damage as a result of the material movement, which was detected early by the pit monitoring systems. The event was caused by significant rain. There was no environmental damage resulting from the incident; however, rainwater diversion channels will need to be re-established to prevent further material subsidence in the pit. While the main access throughout the pit was not affected, mining in the pit has been temporarily suspended. Pit access has been restricted to the necessary technical and operating personnel to support the appropriate geotechnical assessments required for safe remediation and resumption of mining activities. Crushing and stacking of stockpiled material onto the heap leach will continue in the interim. The Company is currently assessing any potential impact of the pit wall event on its full-year production guidance for Camino Rojo. The relevant authorities are being notified as appropriate, and Orla is implementing appropriate remediation measures. The safety of all personnel remains the Company's top priority as it undertakes a comprehensive analysis to ensure the ongoing stability of mining operations. About Orla Mining Ltd.

The Hibiscus Strappy Mini Dress features two bold flowers against a solid black or white background. Each option costs just £14 and can be picked up in store only at the moment. Bosses at the fashion chain added: "Big plans? This mini's got you covered. This strappy mini dress comes in classic white with bold pink hibiscus prints that pop against the fabric — one sitting proudly on the bodice and another blooming near the hem. "Designed with a clean square neckline and slender straps, it's chic, stylish and ready to take centre stage in your wardrobe. Pair it with sandals for daytime plans or swap them for a stiletto when you want to dance all night long." The Primark website does offer shopper the availability tool to check if their preferred style and size will be in stock at their local branch of the discount fashion store.. Sizes range from XXS to XXL, which works out in traditional dress sizes as a range between a 4 and 24. People were quick to comment on the dress when it was showcased online by TikTok user Orla ( @orlanoone). While showing off both versions of the dress, she wrote: "New in Primark. Perfect for holidays". One said: " I really want to try this!" Another added: "The floral is so stunning!" A third wrote: "They'd be lovely on holiday." In the comments, there were a few complaints about the short dress not being to everyone's taste - but they loved the pattern. Someone put: "If only its was maxi!" And another added: "Wish it was a bit longer!" Well, to make sure most fans are catered to, Primark also offers the same style in a £20 co-ord that features a mesh vest top (£8) and a maxi-length skirt (£12). At the time of writing, it's only showing online in the black and red version but videos on TIkTok show that there is a white and pink version available. Making this two seperate pieces, shoppers can buy the whole set or mix and match to suit their taste. Some suggested pairing the top with a casual part of denim shorts and others were planning to wear a plain top to help the bold floral skirt stand out more.

One of our shopping writers found five stunning Primark summer outfits that all cost under £30 each. The top picks include sunshine-coloured dresses to retro-inspired festival wear.

The women of Epping don't need Tommy Robinson's help
The people of Epping have a message for Tommy Robinson: stay away. The far-right activist is currently mulling joining protestors in Essex who have taken to the street outside a hotel used to house asylum seekers. While there have been violent clashes between police and demonstrators – and a number of arrests – many of those who have gathered have done so peacefully. They deserve to be listened to. Yet the arrival of Robinson would make it easy for politicians to cast these locals as far right – and ignore them. Even Robinson doesn't seem able to make his mind up about what to do. On Sunday, he tweeted: 'Hear you loud and clear, I'm coming to Epping next Sunday ladies and bringing thousands more with me'. By lunchtime on Monday, Robinson appeared to have had second thoughts, posting a video in which he appeared to backtrack. The far-right activist said that, despite people asking him to go to Epping, he thinks it 'may not benefit the cause'. He went on to describe the Epping protests – which erupted after the arrest and charge of an asylum seeker last week on suspicion of alleged sexual assaults in the town – as involving 'local families, local women, local mothers, local children'. He noted that his presence might give the authorities an 'excuse' to 'label it a different way'. Robinson might be desperate for attention, but he isn't stupid. Many locals in Epping would certainly prefer Robinson stays away. Monday night's peaceful protest began with the striking sight of a line of women holding hands and chanting 'protect our kids'. They waved hand-made signs with slogans such as 'Make England safe again', 'I'm not far right – I'm worried about my kids' and 'deport foreign criminals'. Orla Minihane is one local mum who is worried. A Reform council candidate, she found herself giving an impromptu speech on Thursday, as violent clashes were beginning between locals, counterprotestors from Stand up to Racism, and police. Speaking through a megaphone, Orla described the crowd as 'good, local, taxpaying people', who 'don't want trouble, don't want fights', but who oppose the presence of hundreds of strange, threatening men in their community. When I spoke with Orla she made it clear to me that the community's concerns are not about race: 'I wouldn't care if they were from Iceland, blonde, blue-eyed and Christian. At the end of the day, they're strange men who nobody has checked'. She described increasing fears in the Epping area over the past year, as women have reported being followed home and blatant shoplifting has soared. There have been reports of men approaching young girls outside schools. Yet the authorities seem reluctant to provide specific details about the men involved, adding to the suspicion and distrust felt by the local community. For many locals, the arrest and charge of an asylum seeker this month was the final straw. Reform leader Nigel Farage has said that most of the protestors in Epping are 'genuinely concerned families', before warning that politicians shouldn't 'underestimate the simmering anger and disgust…that we are letting in every week hundreds of undocumented young males from cultures where women and girls are not even treated as second class citizens'. Farage went on to say 'I don't think anybody in London even understands how close we are to civil disobedience on a vast scale in this country'. Perhaps Tommy Robinson won't turn up in Epping. Or perhaps his love of the limelight will draw him there. If he does attend next Sunday though, it would likely mean significantly more violence. Stand Up To Racism have already announced a 'No to fascist Tommy Robinson' protest to begin in Epping next Sunday afternoon. If they, and Robinson's followers, attend in large numbers, large-scale disorder may be inevitable. This would be in no one's interests, and would harm the local campaign, likely allow the government to paint all opposition to migrant hotels as 'far right' and do nothing to make the women and girls of Epping safe. Let's hope Robinson stays away, and the peaceful, local voices are heard.
