CBH Resources said that it will further reduce its work force at the Endeavor Mine in Cobar, with 118 jobs to go. Earlier this year, CBH laid off 200 workers at the Endeavor Mine and closed its Rasp Mine in Broken Hill.

CBH said that it is reducing ore production in response to the continued deterioration of metal prices. The Endeavour work force will be reduced from 233 to 115 workers.
