About Minera Centinela

In July, Minera Centinela was born, the result of the integration of Minera El Tesoro and Minera Esperanza. The new company takes full advantage of the evident synergies between both companies located in the same mining district, thus becoming one of the largest mining companies in the country with high productivity standards to achieve a more competitive position in the industry. Minera Centinela inherits the track record of innovation and commitment to business sustainability that has characterized its predecessors. This is reflected in important cutting-edge advances applied by the company, such as the solar thermal plant, one of the largest of its type in the world, used for heating solutions used in the electrowinning process, the large-scale application of thickened tailings and the use of undesalinated seawater used in its industrial processes. All of them are an example of the permanent effort to incorporate the best technological solutions to key processes of mining activity. The Antofagasta Minerals group company is located in the Antofagasta Region, kilometers northeast of the capital city of the same name, in the commune of Sierra Gorda, and at an average elevation of . meters above sea level.
