People have been mining for thousands of years. Nowhere is this more evident than at our Sepon copper mine in Lao PDR. Remarkable archaeological discoveries are being made at the Sepon mine in Vilabouly district. One of the most outstanding recent finds included items...
In mid-2016 MMG Kinsevere employees helped celebrate the inauguration of a new school in Denis village, in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC). Working with three communities close to the Kinsevere mine, we produced more than 35,000 bricks to build the school. The community's contribution and...

In the remote Andean communities neighbouring the Las Bambas operation, subsistence farming has been the primary occupation for many local residents. One of the ways that Las Bambas ‘mines for progress’ is by focusing on agriculture through its social development programs - with the...
