17 años de la Cámara Minera del Perú trabajando por el desarrollo minero

The Chamber Of Mines Of Peru is celebrating 17 years of recognized international trajectory; having the mission of contributing to the development of the mining activity through the promotion of a positive synergy between companies, society and the State in a globalized environment.

This can be observed in the photo accompanying this note, where we observe the President of the Congress of the Republic of Peru (2015-2016), Luis Iberico, accompanied by Engineer César Gallardo, Chief Executive Officer of the Chamber Of Mines Of Peru, the Dean of Universidad Nacional de Ingeniería (UNI), Dr. Luis Alva, and the pioneer Mining Entrepreneur, Guido del Castillo, in the framework of the signing of the agreement between the Chamber Of Mines Of Peru and the UNI.

Our history began when a group of businessmen decided to create an institution that would bring together companies related to the mining sector, as well as contribute to optimize their processes under a strict respect for socio-environmental welfare, resulting in mining for all.

Now, 17 years later, the Chamber Of Mines Of Peru has become a recognized institution. It currently generates more than 150 jobs, even in times of pandemic within its staff, and has more than 200 collaborators around the world.

All of this is thanks, to a large extent, to the work of professionals with outstanding careers in the sector, who are part of our Board of Directors and the Technical Advisory Committee.

Because, with their effort and dedication, we established our strategic objectives, the pillars of our continuous growth.
