The Peru cupriferous potential map provides an integral vision of the exploration and development opportunities of projects nationwideThe new map of the Cupriferous Potential of Peru, which highlights the areas with the highest copper concentration in our country, was recently presented by the General Directorate of Mining Promotion and Sustainability (DGPSM) of the Ministry of Energy and Mines of Peru (Minem) with the aim of promoting red metal for its exploration and exploitation globally.
The map, prepared with geological data, provides an integral vision for investors looking for opportunities for exploration and development of cupriferous projects in our country, considered one of the most copper exporting nations worldwide.
The document also highlights the available cupriferous reserves, showing the location of mines in production, mines in investment projects and mines in exploration; In addition, the ranking of the Cupriferous Mining Companies in operation, classified ascendingly according to their production and relevance.
Likewise, statistical information and graphics that analyze the cupriferous production by regions, companies and countries, detailing the export destinations of the copper produced.
Copper is a crucial metal for economic growth and sustainable development of Peru. Its importance extends beyond its traditional industrial use, being a key component in the global energy transition, thanks to its fundamental role in the manufacture of electric vehicles, renewable energy infrastructures and electrical transmission systems, said Walter Sanchez, general director of the DGPSM.
He said that this new map not only facilitates the attraction of national and international investments, but also contributes to employment generation, the impulse of infrastructure and the improvement of the quality of life of local communities.
The map is key to strengthening the competitiveness of the Peruvian mining sector and consolidating the countrys position in the global copper market, said the official.
The publication of the cupriferous map reaffirming the institutional commitment of the Minem to make available to the mining sector transparent, technical and free access information, which promotes responsible and sustainable investment for the benefit of national development.
It should be noted that the printed map is freely delivered by the MINEM and can be accessible digitally with the link: Map of the Peru Cupriferous Potential
