to the protection and conservation of the environment,using natural resources rationally and efficiently,
complying with the implementation of the Environmental
Management Plan, based on current environmental
regulations, doing this more than mandatory. Therefore,
the company has a solar energy project in its operations
area and a greenhouse through which it produces
seedlings of different species that are donated toreforestation projects in western Boyacá. Safety is alsopart of the company’s policy, which is why it created its
own mining rescue point, with all due technologicalelements to deal with emergencies, focusing on
