* The AMSAC-CIDES Field School allowed them to learn up close about the environmental remediation and innovation processes developed by AMSAC in Cerro de Pasco.* This initiative reinforces the articulation between academia, public management and applied science.
Lima, November 11, 2025.- With the purpose of strengthening technical capabilities and promoting environmental innovation in young university students, the public company Activos Mineros S.A.C. (AMSAC) successfully developed the second edition of the AMSAC-CIDES 2025 Field School, a program that combines theory with practice in real mining environmental liability remediation projects.
During the day, students from institutions such as the Universidad Peruana Cayetano Heredia, the Scientific University of the South, the University of Engineering and Technology (UTEC), the National University of Engineering (UNI) and the National Technological University of Lima Sur, visited the Excelsior, Quiulacocha and Delta del Upamayo projects, located in the Pasco region, in addition to learning about the innovation experiences implemented in the Research Center for Sustainable Development (CIDES).
In this space, students observed technologies developed by AMSAC, such as acid mine drainage biotreatment, phytoremediation with vetiver, LodoBricks, BioPods and seed pumps, which make up the companys portfolio of sustainable solutions.
The Field School allows us to bring students closer to the territory and the real challenges of historical mining. We want them to understand the value of innovation and sustainability in the countrys environmental recovery, highlighted Dante Aguilar Onofre, manager of Private Investment at AMSAC.
This second edition was carried out after a successful pilot experience in 2024 - developed together with the Universidad Peruana Cayetano Heredia (UPCH) and the Universidad Nacional Santiago Antunez de Mayolo (UNASAM) - and was consolidated as an interuniversity and interdisciplinary space that promotes collaborative learning and the training of a new generation of professionals committed to the sustainable development of Peru.
