The sudden closure of the huge open pit copper mine, Cobre Panamá, has created a dramatic economic fallout, with its loss of jobs and damage to the country’s reputation for investors.
It was shut down by Panama's Supreme Court after months of protests against it.
We look at the impact, and also ask what could happen next?
