Feb 18 (Reuters) - Gold miner SSR Mining  SSRM.TO  said
late on Sunday that its environmental permit for a gold mine in
eastern Turkey has been revoked.
     The operations at the company's Copler mine will remain
suspended until further notice, the company said. 
    The developments come after a landslide at the gold mine
that left at least eight miners missing and sparked a more than
50% drop in its Toronto-listed shares.
