"The changing regulatory environment, pressure to streamline the permitting process, and significant investment coming into the state are all driving real-time planning, creative strategies, and good organization."
VICE PRESIDENT AND GENERAL MANAGER - BALD MOUNTAIN, KINROSS GOLD CORPORATION
"Interestingly, despite increasingly challenging operating environments, the industry’s ounce production continues to maintain or improve. That speaks to the creativeness and technical expertise of the whole value chain of the industry."
"The conversation in the mining industry primarily revolves around the royalties bill, but to discuss reforms, we need to put everything on the table, including labor, pensions, and health."
"We contribute by using advanced technology and data to reduce failures and downtime, providing confidence in continuous operations. The shift we see in technological development is from increasing size and scale of operations to increasing efficiency and improving processes."
“Cada planta y transportador trabaja bajo condiciones particulares, por lo que buscamos involucrarnos activamente en el proceso productivo para identificar los detalles que optimizarán la solución y, así, implementarlos en coordinación con el cliente.”
“Si bien actualmente producimos más cobre en México que en Perú, esperamos que la ampliación de Cuajone y la puesta en marcha de los otros proyectos en cartera nos permita producir nuevamente más en el Perú.”
"Nuestro plan es posicionar la marca Anddes a un nivel regional mediante la apertura de nuevas oficinas en México, Ecuador y Colombia. Confiamos en que nuestro plan de posicionamiento internacional nos permitirá desarrollar nuestros servicios y aumentar la participación en el mercado local.”
"Abordamos los factores ESG desde distintos ámbitos. Uno de ellos es el social, y participamos en el involucramiento de la comunidad local para ayudar a gestionar el impacto del proyecto y maximizar los beneficios desde el principio."
"When digital tools are too difficult to use, they end up being abandoned, so we developed Sofvie directly with the workforce to make sure that it is user-friendly."
"We are working with the authorities to make sure they have the information they need to make a very informed, defensible decision about permitting the project. From that perspective, Finland is a very good place to work."
