I really liked the efficiency of the format, especially your support. Because one of the concerns when you go to an online event is precisely to ensure that you will be able to make it to the meetings, to talk to people, and for this I think that your support is fundamental. You also assigned a person dedicated to us, who was always on line, confirming if the meetings were held, updating the schedule. All this, I believe in an online event is very important for it to be successful.

The main advantage of online events is the way people can interact without having to be in the same place. We were able to meet important people and decision makers from mining groups that are about to set up in Peru or that already have projects and want to expand. These types of events can facilitate the commercial expansion, helping you build relationships and connecting with those contacts that can sometimes be hard to reach.

I have noticed and I am sure I will always state that the efficient organization of Vostock Capital for the development of these events as well as the inclusion of some platforms that are not common, that is, we do not see them often in our webinars events. I found it quite interesting because it is the technological platforms that support these innovative events, whether it is to have meetings or to participate in networking sessions. So, I can say that your platform has been excellent and this has been a great part of the success of these workshops.

Facts and Figures

The Latin America mining market is anticipated to record a significant CAGR during 2018-2027 and is expected to attain substantial market size by 2027.

Chile will be the fastest growing country on the account of copper mining and the surging demand for various mining equipment coupled with enhanced investment in the mining sector.

Chile has 22% of the world’s copper reserves, 11% of the molybdenum reserves, 5% of the silver reserves, 7% of gold and 48% of the world’s lithium reserves.

Chile is the world’s largest producer of copper, with output of 5,384kt in 2022.

Lithium reserves combined with the demand coming from the electric vehicle industry, will make this resource the focus of international investors and developers.

SQM announced that it had earmarked US$ 3.4 B in new Capex by 2025, with the intention of boosting production capacity of lithium carbonate from 180,000 t/y to 210,000 t/y.

Chile´s mining project portfolio for the 2022-2031 period totals US$ 73 B in 53 initiatives.

Seven major Chilean copper projects are expected to start operations in 2023, involving total investment of just over US$ 11 B and production of nearly 700,000t/y.

Teck's Quebrada Blanca Phase II (QB2) is the project with the largest investment for 2023, estimated at US$ 6.1 B.

The Rajo Inca project, was postponed to start production in 2024, this project, part of the Salvador division of the state-owned copper company Codelco, with US$ 1.4 B investment that will go to install an annual production capacity of 70,000t of copper concentrate is 16 months behind schedule for reasons linked to the pandemic and the crisis in the global supply chain.

Chile has a mining investment and project pipeline for the 2022-2029 period of US$ 43 B in declared projects and US$ 31 B in evaluation.

Mining companies here spend over US$ 15 B annually, on machinery, auxiliary services and technology to keep their operations running.

Chile and Peru formed an alliance to develop a roadmap to promote green hydrogen usage in mining, as part of the drive towards a carbon neutral industry.
