en.Wedoany.com Reported - Peruvian mining company Marcobre recently released its 2025 integrated report, showing copper metal production reached 130,964 tons, a 5% increase from 2024, further consolidating the company's contribution to mining development and the national economy.
The company stated that its mission is "to improve lives by transforming minerals into well-being," driving integrated management based on sustainable development. The report is structured around four pillars: safety and health, environmental protection, responsible governance, and shared value. In safety and health, based on the vision that "zero accidents are possible," the company achieved zero fatal accidents in operations, with the injury frequency rate (IFLR) dropping to 0.59 per million hours worked, a historic low. To strengthen the prevention culture, the company conducted over 350,000 hours of safety and health training, enhanced key risk management tools, and received the internationally recognized "Silver" award from SafeStart.
In environmental protection, Marcobre reported zero major environmental incidents and made progress in several areas: hazardous waste recycling rate reached 41.4%, non-hazardous waste recycling rate reached 85.8%; implementation of international standards for tailings management; and the used tire management project was recognized as "Best Environmental Initiative" at the Aniquem Yanapay Awards. Ángela Ruiz de Somocurcio, the company's Legal, Compliance and Permits Manager, stated that these actions reflect the company's commitment to responsible mining, in line with international standards such as the International Council on Mining and Metals (ICMM) and The Copper Mark.
In the area of responsible governance, the company maintained a management model based on ethics, transparency, and compliance. Key achievements in 2025 include: obtaining ISO 37001 (Anti-Bribery Management) certification; training 100% of employees, customers, and suppliers on anti-corruption policies; and strengthening the integrity channel managed by independent third parties, enhancing trust and objectivity in report management. The company recorded no investigations or sanctions related to misconduct.
In shared value, Marcobre achieved a 97% social acceptance rate in Marcona through open dialogue and neighborhood trust. This result stems from investments in social projects such as education, health, infrastructure, and productive development, as well as the Creatividad Empresarial recognition received for the Marcona Wind Trail initiative. In 2025, the company created 740 local jobs, facilitated over $4.2 million in trade with regional businesses, and promoted local talent development through active training policies. In recruitment, the company promoted diversity and equality, with female employees accounting for 12.8%, exceeding the national average of 10.2% reported by Peru's Ministry of Energy and Mines.
