The Mining policy:
An integral strategy with effective results.

Colombia is in a process of transition and development. The idea of Colombia as a country risk has failed considerably. The positive perception in aspects such as security has opened the doors to new actors to invest domestically and externally, especially in the Mining sector.

All the productive areas of the country must improve their strategies to become competitive, fortify their structures and facilitates empowerment as institutions, offering a better service to the employees, citizens, students and employers.

A key part of the strategy is focused on education and the creation of communication networks. Such actions allow all actors involved to keep up to date with the policies, programs and events that are developed within the Ministry of Mines, towards their target: miners, delegates and civil servants of the Ministry; investors, community and international cooperation - embassies, commissions of economic exchange, among others inwards (miners, delegates and civil servants of the Ministry), as towards outside (investors, community and international cooperation (embassies, economic exchange commission's etc.).

Through Colombia Minera, you will be informed every fifteen days, of the latest advances that are being developed to increase the investment, to improve the perception of the mining sector and mainly to transmit a responsible development approach to all the actors involved in this productive activity.

In each publication the three pillars of the mining policy will be included:

• Mine Resources Management
• Improvement in the productivity and competitiveness
  of the Mining Sector
• Advertisement of the Mining Country

In every three publications, related issues will be discussed, for the knowledge and public use, for instance, financial aspects, mining control and legalization, Mining Districts and the importance of the social impact of the mining sector.

We hope that this new communication and information proposal, will prove useful to gain a better and a more efficient mining investment with a responsible development approach, which will benefit towards a more positive perception of the Colombia industry.
