Minería en Perú 2013

July 15, 2013

SPANISH-LANGUAGE PRODUCT.

Peru is the rising star of South America, maintaining steady growth even as the other economies in the region falter. One of the key drivers of this growth has been its mining industry, with traditional minerals such as copper and gold playing their part alongside exciting new prospects for iron, uranium, and other prospective resources. Yet the sector is facing a number of issues: to maintain its success, the government must do more. Mining in Peru 2013 explores both the challenges and opportunities in the sector.

It is said that mining is a patient industry. Current demand projections are not. Demand for minerals deemed ‘critical’ is set to increase almost fourfold by 2030, according to the UN. Demand for nickel, cobalt and lithium is predicted to double, triple and rise ten-fold, respectively, between 2022 and 2050. The world will need to mine more copper between 2018 and 2050 than it has mined throughout history. 2050 is also the deadline to curb emissions before reaching a point of ‘no return.’ The pace of mineral demand and the consequences of not meeting it force the industry to act fast and take more risks. Mining cannot afford to be a patient industry anymore. The scramble for supply drives miners back to geological credentials, and therefore to places like the African Central Copperbelt.
