Why explore in Peru?
A. With over 500 years of mining activities in the country, Peru has one of the most successful track records of base and precious metal exploration and discoveries in the world. In fact, in a study commissioned by Canada’s Fraser Institute, Peru was rated in the top 20% of world mining jurisdictions for its pro-mining policies, mineral potential and protection of mining assets. The Country is the world’s largest producer of zinc, the second largest producer of silver, and the fourth largest producer of lead. In short, Peru is a mining country. Yet much of this vast land remains unexplored by modern methods and subsequently has become an attractive location for top mining and exploration companies from around the world.
