Mining Australia reported that Metals X (ASX:MLX) has resumed production at three of the four underground production areas at its Renison tin mine in Tasmania following a temporary interruption due to a seismic event.
As quoted in the market news:

Operations at Renison were suspended on August 2, following a seismic event at the operation. No injuries or damage to equipment were reported. The underground operations were restarted following inspections by both staff and the relevant authorities and the company said that further assessment was under way to re-obtain access to the South Renison decline area.
The company was also working to minimise the impact of the seismic event and work stoppages on mine production figures. Metals X said that it was currently envisaged that the seismic event would result in the loss of some five days of processing production. The processing plant at Renison was shut down at the end of the night shift on Wednesday, to enable stocks to be replenished, and scheduled maintenance would be brought forward.
