Chile Leader in metals that facilitate the future 5 Letter from the Authorities Chile is paying great heed to the mining industry’s role as the driving force behind development, with particular emphasis on production. Figures from the United States Geological Survey indicate that the country holds 20% of all global copper ore reserves. Each of our initiatives has therefore been designed in line with our leadership potential in the field.

Codelco’s Division stands as a case in point: indeed, this project has seen the construction of 4,500 kilometers of tunnels, a figure greater than the full length of continental Chile. Another clear example is – also a mine – which has grown over the years to become the world’s largest open-pit mine, and moved to underground mining after 100 years of surface development.

Indeed, it is important to duly recognize the contributions made each day by the mining sector’s workers, executives, professionals, and specialists, endowing the industry with their skills and talents, regardless of whether they are operating in the arid north or the snowcapped .

It should also be noted that we have taken on the challenge of improving workplace safety for everyone involved in mining, with a series of measures that allow progress to be made in the right direction; reports from the National Geology and Mining Service (Sernageomin) show that these initiatives have materialized in a significant and sustained reduction in accident rates over the past ten years.

Baldo Prokurica Prokurica Ricardo Irarrázabal Sánchez As officials in the government of President Sebastián Piñera, we have a deep-seated commitment Minister of Mining Vice Minister of Mining to developing, discussing, approving, and disseminating public policies that allow the Chilean mining industry to maintain its rightful place in the world. Chile is – undeniably- a leader in metals that facilitate the future. Our country is the world’s top one copper and rhenium producer, second in lithium and molybdenum, and sixth in silver production. It This book serves as a road map to 40 projects currently standing at a range of phases in Chile, and the accounts for 55% of the entire planet’s rhenium production, 28% of all copper, 22% of molybdenum, economic potential that they hold for the country. Each project also features specific areas for ongoing 19% of lithium, and 5% of silver. efforts in terms of sustainability, and for underpinning an essential fact: the mining sector does not let Chile down. Mining is therefore seen as the country’s most significant economic activity. Over time the industry has consolidated and brought a powerful boost for Chile’s development, directly and indirectly benefiting thousands of local families. Meanwhile, its progressive contribution to job creation has played a key role in reducing poverty.

The mining sector’s position as the country’s economic powerhouse has consequences both within Chile and abroad. The considerable advances that we have experienced as a preferred destination for investment should therefore come as no surprise.

Meanwhile, a recent study conducted by the Chilean Copper Commission (Cochilco) showed a 13% increase in resources earmarked for exploration in 2019, bringing the country up from sixth place the Baldo Prokurica Prokurica Ricardo Irarrázabal Sánchez previous year to fourth: a clear sign of interest in projecting our mining deposits into the future.

Chile Leader in metals that facilitate the future 17 Chile Attractive Country to Invest in Mining

Chile Leader in metals that facilitate the future 19 hile is the world’s number one copper producer, thanks to the country’s land and geological potential combined with regulatory conditions that maintain stability for Cinvestors. This situation is reflected in the Fraser Institute’s Economic Freedom Index1.

Characteristics as a Mining Country

Throughout its history, Chile has a consolidated mining tradition. Since pre-Columbian times and through to the present day, our country has been a leading destination for mining development at all scales, from small copper and gold mines developed by indigenous peoples at Chuquicamata and , to large-scale copper mining.

The country’s unique geographical features endow it with competitive advantages that have materialized in the form of relevant infrastructure such as highways, ports, power lines, airports, desalination plants, and ore concentrate pipelines that connect mines in the high Andes with shipping ports.

In order for Chile to retain its position as the world’s top copper producer and a leading country in terms of knowledge export, the challenges are diverse and cross-cutting. This is why President Sebastián Piñera’s government is currently developing its flagship 2050 National Mining Policy to comprehensively address these challenges and to strengthen the industry’s sustainable development.

1 Economic Freedom of the World: 2019 Annual Report

Chile Leader in metals that facilitate the future 21 Mining Statistics

In 2018 Chile produced 5.8 Mt of fine copper, the highest figure in the country’s history2. This is a encouraging news for the sector in view of the major investments planned for coming years (around US$72.5 billions by 2028).

The Chilean Copper Commission (Cochilco) estimates that domestic production of fine copper will reach 6 Mt in 2020, and 7.2 Mt by 20233.

Set against this background, Chile has positioned itself as an attractive destination for investments in other metals. Indeed, discoveries of gold deposits in the Upper Jurassic and Lower Cretaceous belts4, together with the discoveries along the Miocene Belt that began in 2005, have drawn the attention of a large number of exploration companies.

Located in the Andes Mountains between 27° and 30° south latitude, this belt is known for its gold- bearing deposits, most of which are high-sulfidation epithermal formations either with -bounded vein, breccia or disseminated mineralization, together with some gold-copper porphyry units. Besides from this zone’s significance as a source of gold, it also contains deposits with attractive levels of copper, silver, and molybdenum. The most significant sites are El Indio and Pascua-Lama epithermal deposits, and the Cerro Casale gold-copper porphyry formation. Other ore bodies located in this belt include the La Coipa, Caspiche, and Pimentón epithermal deposits in Chile and the similar Veladero deposit in Argentina, as well as the Lobo-Marte gold-bearing porphyry (Cochilco, 2015). New discoveries are adding to the belt’s known mineral riches, such as Salares Norte and Alturas.

The constant and increasing trend in gold prices since 2016 has attracted the attention of mining investors. This is showcased in the 2018 World Exploration Trends report published by S&P Global Market, which highlights that worldwide investment in exploration amounts to some US$10.1 billion, and half of this figure goes to projects mainly targeting gold deposits5. The same situation has clear effects in Chile, where the latest report from the Chilean Copper Commission (Cochilco), titled Chile 2019 Survey of Exploration Companies (Catastro de Empresas Exploradoras de Chile 20196), states that gold takes second place in investment and first place in terms of the number of exploratory boreholes drilled7.

The Miocene Belt, the site of Chile’s recent major gold discoveries, offers an outstanding investment opportunity, where gold-bearing resources have been identified with a total content of more than 33 Moz.

The latest report by the Chilean Copper Commission (Cochilco) describes the portfolio of projects to Chile offers major development opportunities for this class of exploration due to its vast geological be implemented between 2019 and 2028, reporting that 44 projects are set to begin operations, with potential and new discoveries in the High Andes. During the past twenty years at least 35 deposits total investment of US$ 72.5 billion (Cochilco, 2019). Antofagasta Region heads the list, with 34% of the featuring copper as the primary mineral and three gold deposits have been discovered in Northern investment projected for the period, while copper accounts for 96% of the investment in that region. and Central Chile, adding more than 208.6 Mt of copper and 34.3 Moz of gold to known resources and reserves8.

SIGEX https://www.sernageomin.cl/sigex/

In 2016 SERNAGEOMIN began efforts to request, compile, and publish information on basic geological exploration performed by companies. The platform allows access to databases of drilling, geochemistry, geochronology, and geophysics, all in editable formats that can be reprocessed and analyzed by interested parties. The system also provides the possibility to download geological maps, mineralogy studies, petrography information, and complementary documents for this basic geology data.

This initiative makes geological information from exploration available for public use, which leads to lower costs in basic exploration stages. This promotes support for development in the mining industry as well as acknowledgment of the country’s mineral resources.

To date, information has been collected covering a total of 495 projects in Chile. Figure 1 shows the distribution of projects by region, with clear preponderance in Northern Chile, which is the site of 80% of all reported exploration work. Meanwhile, copper is the element of greatest interest among companies, with some 89% of all initiatives, followed by gold and silver projects with 7%. Other resources, like iron, cobalt, hydrocarbons, and industrial minerals and rocks, account for 4%.
