The consolidation of mining ties between Canada and Peru calls for players capable of combining international standards with technical knowledge tailored to local contexts. Here, REDCO Mining Consultants stands out as a boutique mining engineering consultancy with more than twenty years of experience, focused on delivering specialized solutions for an industry facing new and greater demands.

The consultancy covers different stages of the mining cycle. Its presence in Chile, the United States, Peru and Brazil gives it a comparative perspective that is vital for companies with interests in the Americas and the Canadian ecosystem. Reinforcing this path of internationalization, the company has just opened its office in Vancouver, Canada, placing itself directly in one of the world’s leading financial and mining investment centers.

Led by its Executive Director and Founder, Enrique Rubio, the company bases its methodology on mathematics, computing and applied engineering to resolve rock behavior in large-scale projects. This rigor rests on a team that combines the weight of consultants with more than 25 years in the industry and the drive of young professionals with strong data processing capabilities. The core spans critical areas such as planning, geomechanics, mineral processing and economic evaluation. In addition, a decisive factor for the North American market is that a large share of these specialists hold the Qualified Persons certification, an essential requirement for auditing and signing technical reports under the strict standards of the capital markets, especially in Canada.

At the operational level, REDCO carries out economic studies (PEA, PFS and Feasibility), independent technical reviews and due diligence for investors, banks and law firms. Its service portfolio includes operational turnaround processes and the evaluation of design alternatives, ensuring concrete answers for the technical optimization of mine sites.

The consultancy structures its offering through highly specialized business units. On the one hand, the subsidiary REDTEC Technology operates as its technology arm. Its portfolio covers engineering for Horizontal Directional Drilling (HDD), optimized design of drilling campaigns, hydrofracturing systems and a geotechnical monitoring center. At the same time, it supplies advanced equipment for tailings management, water recovery, ore sorting and on-line grade control, directly tackling geological uncertainty.

For its part, R+ Ingeniería acts as the arm specializing in mechanized development for underground mining and civil works. It covers engineering for TBM systems, microtunnels, Shaft Sinking and specialized drilling methods (RBR, BBM and BBR). To this technical front they add the development of engineering projects in the prefeasibility (PFS), feasibility (FS) and detailed phases, covering mine-to-plant infrastructure, tailings and the direct optimization of operations. Both divisions equip REDCO to solve the industry’s critical challenges with high operational precision.

Accelerating the start-up of new deposits is today the industry’s main bottleneck. REDCO tackles this problem by reducing uncertainty in the early stages and maximizing the installed capacity of operations. By setting up in Vancouver while maintaining its footprint in the South American hub, the consultancy combines the technical rigor demanded by the Canadian capital market with the empirical knowledge of the region’s most complex mine sites. The result is precise engineering support to unlock and make viable the large investments that the new mining cycle demands.
