Mine
In the center of La Guajira is the heart of our operations. We carry out the exploration and exploitation of Colombian coal following applicable operational and environmental standards. We also consider land rehabilitation in the intervened areas towards the end of the mining process.
At the mine, we also have the largest mining equipment maintenance workshop in the industry, where we can perform checks and maintenance on our equipment. Likewise, our operation integrates the coal crushing and washing plants and silos. We have a specialized laboratory that allows us to exercise operational control over the quality of the coal transported by our trains and ensure compliance with the requirements of our customers.
