MEXICO CITY, Sept 30 (Reuters) - Canadian mining firm Silver
Bull Resources said in a statement on Monday that it has
temporarily suspended work at its Sierra Mojada project in
northern Mexico due to a blockade by a cooperative of local
miners.
    Silver Bull said it is in an ongoing legal battle with the
cooperative, called Sociedad Cooperativa de Exploracion Minera
Mineros Nortenos, which "illegally blocked" access to the
project before a final court ruling is issued on the conflict.
    Silver Bull is exploring for silver and zinc at the project.
