The Mineral Industry of Bolivia in 2008 2008 Minerals Yearbook BOLIVIA U.S. Department of the Interior August 2010 U.S. Geological Survey THE MINERAL INDUS T RY OF BOLIVIA By Steven T. Anderson In 2008, Bolivia produced about 5% of the world’s total mine this same timeframe (Instituto Nacional de Estadística, Bolivia, output of tin and silver; 3%, of zinc; 2%, of antimony, bismuth, 2009a; 2009b, p. 448-450; International Monetary Fund, 2009; lead, and tungsten; and approximately 1%, of boron. Bolivia’s López and Ferrufino, 2009, p. 9-10, 28-30; Ministerio de proven reserves of natural gas (about 711 billion cubic meters) Minería y Metalurgia, Bolivia, undated a, p. 6). were second only to those of Venezuela among South American In 2007 (the latest year for which data were available), the countries. Tin, some antimony, and small amounts of some total labor force employed in mining was about 57,400 workers. other mined minerals were refined or further processed into mill Of these workers, an estimated 46,700 small-scale, cooperative, products in the country but most were exported in crude form and artisanal (SMACA) miners were officially registered by rail to ports on the coasts of Argentina, Brazil, Chile, and (or) with a cooperative through the Government and at least 2,450 Peru and then shipped further on to processing facilities located SMACA miners were not. In 2006 and 2007, about 3,350 people in Asia, Europe, and North America. On average, 31 million were employed by medium-scale mining operations that used cubic meters per day of Bolivia’s production of natural gas modern mining methods. The remainder were employed by the was exported to Brazil during 2008 compared with about state-owned mining company Corporación Minera de Bolivia 27 million cubic meters per day during 2007; 2.3 million cubic (COMIBOL), which restarted active mining operations in 2006 meters per day, on average, of Bolivia’s natural gas production for the first time since at least 2000 (when the company’s last was exported to Argentina compared with about 4.6 million active mining operations were either privatized or closed). cubic meters per day during 2007. The supply contract with COMIBOL employed about 4,900 miners in 2007, and most Argentina had a clause that promised deliveries of natural of these Government employees were transferred from private gas up to about 7.7 million cubic meters per day (equal to the mining cooperatives that had been working the Huanuni tin listed capacity of the Yabog natural gas pipeline from Bolivia mine before the mine’s renationalization during the final quarter to Argentina), subject to availability of natural gas for export of 2006. According to the Instituto Nacional de Estadística after first fulfilling Bolivia’s domestic demand requirements (INE), Bolivia, the total number of employees in the mineral and allocating necessary volumes for export to Brazil (table 1; industry was about 72,400 in 2007 (Instituto Nacional de Cauclanis, 2008b; BP p.l.c., 2009, p. 22; Brooks, 2009; Carlin, Estadística, Bolivia, 2009b, p. 294; Ministerio de Minería y 2009a-c; Guberman, 2009; López and Ferrufino, 2009, p. 34-39, Metalurgia, Bolivia, undated b). 63-71; Polyak, 2009; Shedd, 2009; Tolcin, 2009). Preliminary estimates indicated that foreign direct investment (FDI) in Bolivia’s oil and gas sector was about $380 million Minerals in the National Economy in 2008 compared with about $131 million in 2007. The 2007 level of FDI in the sector represented an increase of about 126% In 2008, the value of output of the mineral industry of compared with that of 2006 ($58 million). The 2006 level of Bolivia accounted for about 14.2% ($2,360 million1) of the FDI was the lowest since 1996 (when the production of natural country’s gross domestic product (GDP) compared with about gas in the country was still in a nascent stage), and corresponded 12.3% ($1,630 million) in 2007. The mining sector accounted with the Government’s measures to nationalize the sector. In for about 8.55% ($1,420 million) of the GDP and the mineral 2008, FDI in the mining sector was estimated to be at its highest fuels sector accounted for about 5.7% ($940 million) in 2008 level ($478 million) since at least 1996 (about $20 million), and compared with 5.8% ($770 million) and 6.5% ($860 million), had increased substantially even compared with that of 2007 respectively, in 2007. In 2008, most of the value of mineral fuel ($308 million). In early 2007 and somewhat into 2008, there output was accounted for by the production of natural gas. Zinc appeared to be some Government announcements in favor of the led all the nonfuel minerals in Bolivia in terms of both the value nationalization of the mining sector. Government investment in and the volume of production. The value of mined zinc totaled the oil and gas sector increased to about $51.3 million in 2008 about $710 million followed by that of silver ($520 million), compared with $7.6 million in 2007; public investment realized tin ($315 million), and gold ($230 million). In 1990 prices, the in the mining sector was $34 million in 2008 compared with real GDP of Bolivia increased by about 6.1% in 2008 compared about $11 million in 2007 (Ecclestone, 2008; Orvana Minerals with that of 2007, which was the greatest annual increase in a Corp., 2008, p. 22-23; Instituto Nacional de Estadística, Bolivia, decade. In 2008, an increase of about 56% in the real value of 2009b, p. 630, 686; undated a, b; Mapstone and Schipani, 2009). production by the mining sector compared with that of 2007 led In 2008, the mineral trade balance (not including some trade all sectors of the Bolivian economy in terms of its contribution in chemical substances and products that may have been mineral to the growth in the real GDP of the country. The real value of based) was about $4.4 billion. The value of trade in minerals production of mineral fuels also increased by about 2% during may include the value of some transportation and (or) pipeline services. Natural gas was Bolivia’s leading export (reportedly 1Where necessary, nominal values have been converted from Bolivian valued at about $3.16 billion), and zinc in concentrates was bolivianos (Bs) to U.S. dollars (US$) at an annual average exchange rate of the leading nonfuel mineral export (about $740 million). Bs7.75=US$1.00 for 2007 and Bs7.27=US$1.00 for 2008. All values are nominal, at current prices, unless otherwise stated. Production of silver was growing in economic importance, and Bolivia—2008 3.1 the value of the country’s exports of silver (mostly contained in about $95 million compared with $70 million in 2007.

Casilla 1044. Cochabamba. Bolivia 2 Medio Ambiente y Desarrollo (MEDA). Cochabamba. Bolivia Abstract The Department of La Paz has the largest number of wild potato species (Solanum Section Petota Solanaceae) in Bolivia, some of which are rare and threatened by extinction. Solanum achacachense, S. candolleanum, S. circaeifolium, S. okadae, S. soestii and S. virgultorum were all searched for in their type localities and new areas. Isolated specimens of S. achacachense were found in its type localities, while S. candolleanum was found in low density populations. Solanum circaeifolium was also found as isolated specimens or in low density populations in its type localities, but also in new areas. Solanum soestii and S. okadae were found in small, isolated populations. No specimen of S. virgultorum was found at all. The majority of the wild species searched for suffered the attack of pathogenic fungi. Interviews with local farmers revealed the main factors negatively affecting these species to be loss of habitat through urbanization and the use of the land for agriculture and forestry.

YELLOW FEVER IN THE AMERICAS by 1 2 7 Thomas P. Monath, M.D. Chief, Vector-Borne Diseases Division Center for Disease Control Ft. Collins, Colorado Efforts to eradicate Aedes aegypti during the first 30 years of this century resulted in the virtual disappearance of urban epidemics of yellow fever but uncovered the underlying sylvan transmission cycle. Since 1930, only 14 epidemics of urban yellow fever have occurred; each followed introduction of the virus from a juxtaposed jungle focus, and none resulted in a continuing endemic presence. The last outbreak was recorded in Port of Spain, Trinidad in 1954. Since 1930, the annual incidence of human cases of jungle yellow fever has been low and fairly constant. Periodically an increase in virus activity is manifested by cases clustered in time and space within the endemic zone. A few epidemics have broached the boundaries of the endemic wet forests of South America, extending into Argentina to the south or into Central America to the north. Yellow fever virus is endemic in Brazil, Bolivia, Peru, and Colombia, in forested and sparsely-populated areas under limited cultivation, drained by tributaries of the Amazon and Orinoco Rivers. The incidence of cases in the last five years, reflecting only the activity of yellow fever in its sylvan cycle, is shown in Table 1. Brazil. Yellow fever cases are sporadically recognized in the states of Para, Amazonas, Acre, Mato Grosso, Goias, and in the territories of Roraima and Rondoma.
