… earlier in the release
Michiquillay will become one of Peru ´ s largest copper mines and will create significant business opportunities in the Cajamarca region; generate new jobs for the local communities; and contribute with taxes and royalties to the local, regional and national governments. Project update : As of September 30, 2024, the total progress of the exploration project was 30%. We have drilled 120,923 meters (total program = 148,000 meters) and obtained 39,234 drill core samples for chemical analysis. Diamond drilling will continue and will provide information for the interpretation of geological sections related to mineralization, geological modeling and mineral resource evaluation. Geo-metallurgical studies are currently underway; hydrological and hydrogeological studies for the project will begin shortly. Environmental, Social & Corporate Governance (ESG) Practices Responsible Production . Our three operations in Peru, Cuajone, Toquepala and Ilo, were awarded with The Copper Mark and The Molybdenum Mark certifications for responsible production following an independent third-party assessment of environmental, social and governance performance (ESG). We are proud to report that all our open pit copper and molybdenum production has been certified under these standards. Education infrastructure for Arequipa . We delivered the Center for Research with specialized engineering laboratories to the Universidad Nacional de San Agust í n de Arequipa (UNSA), Peru. This facility, which was built under the Works for Taxes mechanism at a cost of $18 million, is equipped with 24 laboratories and will benefit 6,500 student
