Reuters reported on August 24, 2016 that Goldcorp, Inc. potentially violated Mexican regulations by failing to remedy selenium contamination in ground water caused by the Company’s Penasquito Mine.  Selenium, which has purportedly been leaking from the Penasquito Mine since at least March 31, 2014, can cause tremors, kidney failure, heart attacks, and heart failure, among other health issues.

Goldcorp allegedly never disclosed the contamination issues to the public, instead reporting in its SEC filings during the relevant period that it properly carried out all “mining and processing operations and exploration and development activities” pursuant to applicable laws.

Dissemination of the Reuters report disclosing Goldcorp’s potential mishandling of the selenium leak caused the price of Goldcorp securities to fall over 9% to close at $15.95 on August 26, 2016.

“Goldcorp’s Penasquito Mine operations were a significant business,” said Hagens Berman partner Reed Kathrein.  “The Company’s undisclosed facts were important for investors to know when deciding whether to invest.”

Under the new SEC whistleblower program, whistleblowers who provide original information may receive rewards totaling up to 30 percent of any successful recovery made by the SEC.
