P R O J E C T SMINING

Ecuador is a country that has a great growth potential in the exploration and development of Deposits and minerals. The objective of this sector is to generate a sustainable development with public policies that facilitate, norm and promote investments in extractive activities for Ecuador. The mining sector represents an important source of resources for the development of the nation, as a leveraging factor for the generation of employment, and a factor for a balanced local and regional development.
