MEXICO CITY – Mexican authorities are investigating reports of clandestine grave sites in the hamlet of Carrizalillo, near a gold mine operated by a Canadian company.

. . .

But inhabitants said Wednesday that at least three pits with human bones have been found. They showed reporters what appeared to be hip or leg bones in the pits.

Assistant mayor Nelson Figueroa said inhabitants reported seeing pickup trucks full of bodies heading out to the rural area last year.

. . .

Three employees of a mine operated by Canada’s Goldcorp near Carrizalillo were kidnapped and killed in the area in March. Their bodies were found.
