Almost 700 chrome miners of ACR concessionary Company have started a general strike.

The strike that was warned some days ago by the
Miners’ Union started this morning. The workers interrupted their work in the galleries and
gathered in front of the administration buildings.
Syndication leaders presented their demands.

However, not all miners agreed with this strike. Some of them refused to
be represented by the syndication. Chrome company directors
declared their readiness to negotiate, complaining that they did not find the same
readiness from the syndication leaders.

According to strike leaders, this protest will go on until their
requests will be fulfilled and that it will extend to other heavy
industry strikers.
