Industries we’re best at

Mining

Demand for critical minerals grows by the day. Finding new sources for supply is however getting more and more challenging. In Estribor we understand crystal clear the Greenfield Exploration Industry for most critical materials. Being agile, sharp and smart is our seal.

Renewable Energy

Green Energy is the future. And such future is already here. Trend indicates that rather than large scale projects, the industry looks for clusters of small yet profitable wind and solar farms. At Estribor we have the right approach to support energy companies in carrying out these projects.

Latest news

Chile’s mining industry is eager to use green hydrogen to facilitate decarbonization. BNamericas talks to Javier Jara, a former deputy […]
"Excessive dependence on the export of mineral concentrates can expose the mining industry to the volatility of international prices, "says Javier Jara, former deputy director of geology and mining service Sernageomin and current managing partner of Estribor Consulting. "On the other hand, boosting smelting capacity in Chile can diversify the economy by allowing the production and export of products with higher added value", he tells BNamericas.
“No es una señal de optimismo aún, porque lo que Chile necesita [todavía] son mayores inversiones en descubrir nuevos depósitos de cobre, asi como desbloquear la producción de litio. Creo que la gestión del gobierno ha sido más bien deficiente,” Jara dijo a Chile Explore Report. “Se entiende por el lado político duro, porque son temas con mucha carga ideológica, no obstante, no se entiende por el lado de políticas públicas de largo plazo,” agregó.
