Services & Expertise

We develop solutions for the whole spectrum of the mining process, from exploration, through exploitations to waste management. What you might see as waste, we can identify as a potential resource, and advice and develop ways to exploit it. Our goal is to integrate sustainability into your operations in the most efficient way in order to increase your economic benefit, to minimize the environmental impact and costs and to ensure the social acceptance of your operations. During the las 20 years our clients and collaboration partners have come from the mining industry (e.g. CODELCO, Anglo American, Southern Peru Copper Corporation), Universities and Research Institutes, as well as state agencies from mining countries including Chile, Peru, and Colombia. We have experience in project development and management under extreme geographic and climatic conditions, from the Antarctic to the Atacama Desert and High Mountains Areas.
