(Translated from Spanish by Google Translate) The Alpamarca open pit is part of the Alpamarca operating unit. It is a deposit of lead, zinc, silver and copper veins. It is located 4,700 meters above sea level in the Santa Bárbara district of Carhuacayan, Yauli Province, Junin Region. The project consists of 2,100 hectares of concessions in an area with significant geological potential. The Alpamarca deposit is mechanically-operated open pit. This pit is being operated in two sectors: Sector 1, which consists of the Nito pit and Sector 2, which consists of the Juanita, Fortuna Anita and Don Pablo pits. During the year 2022, at Alpamarca open pit, interramp slope angles have been improved, between 3° and 6°, allowing a reduction of sterile and improving the recovery of the mineral.
