Mining is a High Tech Industry

The mining industry in Panama has earned its status as an international center of mining and exploration excellence based on geological expertise, technological modernization and by adopting the highest environmental, social and safety standards in the world.

Petaquilla Gold has implemented tools such as geophysical surveys capable of detecting mineralized bodies at great depths (up to 1 km) or below heavy rock cover and 3-D modeling to define deposits. In the development stage, Petaquilla’s engineers have also developed a mine plan using computer-aided design programs and prepared multi-disciplinary feasibility studies examining all aspects of the mine project, including environmental safety.

Petaquilla Gold’s open-pit mine also uses some of largest haul-trucks in the driven by highly skilled operators. The mills and processing plants also rely on sophisticated electronic systems for quality control. In practically every aspect of the operation, Petaquilla has embraced technological advances and profited from the expertise of Canadian mining which has supported the project from the beginning.
