En qué se apoya y qué podría romperlo
De qué depende el negocio

- 2Mining, processing, and sales depend on permits, concessions, water access, and political and community conditions in Peru and Mexico.
- 3Operations require substantial electricity, fuel, natural gas, water, equipment, and skilled labor; some Mexican electricity is purchased from a power company affiliated with Grupo Mexico.
Qué podría salir mal
- 1Changes in copper and other metal prices can materially affect sales revenue and financial results.
- 2Community actions, illegal mining, political changes, or problems obtaining and renewing permits and concessions in Peru or Mexico can delay or stop mine projects and operations.
- 3Lower-than-expected ore grades, equipment or process failures, and interruptions or higher costs for energy, fuel, water, labor, or supplies can reduce production or raise operating costs.
