As part of the 13th International Congress of Prospectors and Explorers (proEXPLO 2023), from May 11 to 14, a field trip will be made to two important deposits in Peru to showcase the mineral wealth of our territory.

The field trip will be conducted by expert instructors David Cooke and Lisard Torró and will be aimed at getting to know Hilarion project and Antamina's facilities in the Ancash region. A digital certificate will be provided to participants, as informed by the organizers.

Antamina is a world-class polymetallic mining complex, producing copper, zinc, molybdenum concentrates, and -as by-products- silver and lead concentrates.

It is located in the district of San Marcos, province of Huari, at an average altitude of 4,300 masl and 200 km from the city of Huaraz.

Hilarion is a greenfield exploration project located in the district of Huallanca, province of Bolognesi, and is owned by Nexa Resources Peru. The main minerals in this project are copper, zinc and lead.
