San Sebastian Gold Mine is a gold mine located 2.5 miles northwest of Santa Rosa de Lima in the La Unión Department of El Salvador. It has been artisanaly mined since 1904 and industrially mined since the 1970s. Commerce Group Corp., the U.S. company who ran the mine in since the 1970s had their license revoked in 2006, following the pollution of the San Sebastián River. The license revocation prompted the owners to unsuccessfully sue the government, before abandoning the mine.
