A coalition of Canadian mining watchdog groups sent documents to the RCMP on Wednesday, along with a request that the Mounties investigate activities of Calgary-based Blackfire Exploration Ltd. and its Mexican operations. 

Additional Excerpt:

The groups, including MiningWatch Canada and Sierra Club Canada, allege the company should be probed under the Corruption of Foreign Public Officials Act. Blackfire has repeatedly denied any wrongdoing in connection with its Mexican mining operations.
