Peru votes to extend informal mining permits for six more months

0

Peru’s Congress voted late on Friday to extend for six months a controversial permit that allows informal mines to operate in the country.

The permit, known as Reinfo, is opposed by most of the large business groups but is supported by hundreds of thousands of informal miners. Peru is an important center of operations for some of the world’s biggest copper miners, including Freeport McMoran and Southern Copper.
