TOPICS TO BE DISCUSSED

1

Integrated mine closure vision, planned from design and focused on a positive legacy: circular, social, environmental and responsible

  • Value creation for a positive, fair and equitable legacy: connection with ecosystems, community resilience and future land use.

  • Communication strategy: expectation management, opportunity creation, proactive trust-building and long-term agreements.

  • Key challenges in the transition to integrated mine closure: successful case studies.

2

Regulatory challenges, financial assurances and international standards for a successful mine closure

  • Changes to Peru’s mine closure regulations: new requirements for closure plans, periodic reporting and issuance of the closure certificate.

  • Financial assurances: amounts, funding mechanisms, duration and release.

  • New obligations related to compliance validation by regulatory authorities.

  • Global standards and their potential incorporation into mine closure plans.

3

Technological, sustainable and circular innovations applicable to the transition to closure

  • Circular economy approaches for the valorization of waste (tailings and waste rock).

  • Innovation in the reuse of materials and closed facility areas.

  • Emerging technologies in bioremediation, phytoremediation and innovative land covers oriented toward future land use.

  • Reduction of environmental footprint through cross-cutting technologies applied to operations, closure and post-closure.

4

Organization and governance of mine closure within the business life cycle

  • Corporate, financial and social governance: decision-making mechanisms, ESG risk management and accountability to investors, communities and the State.

  • Systemic organization: planning, prioritization and reconfiguration of areas and work teams during the transition to closure and post-closure.

5

Post-closure challenges and considerations

  • Effectiveness of post-closure monitoring and maintenance (physical, geochemical and hydrological), using verifiable indicators (KPIs).

  • Efficient, safe, sustainable and responsible post-closure water management, including tailings storage facilities (TSFs), long-term O&M and treatment of passive discharges.

  • Challenges and complexities associated with obtaining the final closure certificate.
