Collaguasi mining district


Copper deposit, located 170 km SE of Iquique.

Typical low-grade copper porphyry, comprising several ore zones: the major Ujina and Rosario deposits / mines consisting of secondary, enriched sulphides and oxides and the Huinquintipa oxide deposit.

There is no actual Collahuasi Mine, rather it is a copper mining project. The project includes numerous mining concessions that have been titled: Alfa; AmΓ©rica; Ana; Bambino; Bamby; BΓ©lgica; Bermudas; Beta; Birmania; Brasil; Bulgaria; CanadΓ‘; CeilΓ‘n; Cinco; Cominco; Cuatro; Delta; Dos; Gama; Huinquintipa; Lama; MarΓ­a AngΓ©lica Segunda; MarΓ­a Paz; Rogelia; Seis; Siria; SomalΓ­a.
