The major inacentives considered by MEF include 1) the fact that it is a major project in the Pasco Province, leading to sustainable development and investment in services, 2) its ability to convert a state liability into an enterprise invested by the private sector, 3) very large potential economic scale, 4) diverse value chain, 5) onshoring objectives, 6) significant job creation, and 7) environmental and health benefits.
The significant potential benefits of the CDPR Quiulacocha Tailings Reprocessing Project are now acknowledged by key government entities, including MEF and the Energy and Mines Ministry, as well as local communities and authorities.
CDPR expects to receive the final go-ahead to execute 40 confirmatory sonic drills within its El Metalurgista concession in a few weeks, having completed exhaustive procedures.
Guy Goulet, CEO: "The Peruvian government clearly stands behind our project and I am confident that drill results will lead rapidly to development of the entire Quiulacocha Tailings Facility. Drill results will drive subsequent agreements to enable us to get going without further delay."
