They say the Tara Deep project still needs to start as part of the deal that reopened the mines last year.
Unions are demanding a meeting with operators at Tara Mines over what they're calling a failure to meet their obligations in an agreement brokered by the Workplace Relations Commission.
Tara Mines Group of Unions has written to management at Boliden urging the company to begin work on the Tara Deep project, in-line with a deal which resulted in the mine’s operations recommencing last year.
The plans to develop a new ore body were part of a 'Sustainability Agreement' reached under the auspices of the WRC in April last year.
The company recently told Midlands MEP Barry Cowen that the high cost of electricity was a continuing concern around their future plans.
