ITEM 8.01 OTHER EVENTS
On October 6, 2009, Southern Copper Corporation ("SCC") announced that the
workers of the Nueva Rosita Unit of its subsidiary, Industrial Minera Mexico S.
A. de C.V. ("IMMSA"), had, by an overwhelming majority, voted to elect union
representation by the "Sindicato Nacional de Trabajadores de la Exploracion,
Explotacion y Beneficio de Minas de la Republica Mexicana" (Exploration Union),
which belongs to the National Federation of Independent Unions and which has a
very large number of members. On October 1, 2009 the Federal Labor Court
affirmed the decision of the workers of Nueva Rosita to be represented by the
Exploration Union, decision which later could be challenged.
The workers from eight of eleven mining units and plants of Minera Mexico S. A.
de C. V. are now represented by the Exploration Union.
