In a context defined by the urgency to optimize processes, reduce impacts, and accelerate the energy transition, PERUMIN 2025 established itself as the leading gathering for the mining sector in the region. Held from September 22 to 26 in Arequipa, the event drew over 65,000 participants, establishing itself as a key platform for showcasing technologies that aim to redefine the future of the industry.
Against this backdrop, Veracio actively participated at booths 282 and 283 in Pavilion 2, presenting its comprehensive offering for modern mining. The company showcased advanced solutions that integrate real-time geochemical scanning and state-of-the-art drilling measurement instruments, designed to optimize decision-making at critical stages such as exploration and production.
“We aim to bring our solutions closer to the Peruvian market and demonstrate how our systems enable faster, more accurate, and automated geological characterization—from sample collection to data processing,” said Eduardo Molina, Veracio’s Global Vice President of Commercial, who also highlighted that the company was part of the Australian Government delegation (AUSTRADE), engaging both at its booth and throughout its official agenda.
Veracio’s presentation centered on demonstrating the potential of its technology through free demonstrations of its cloud-based platforms, which integrate geochemical and mineralogical data collected in the field into a single interface. These tools incorporate artificial intelligence algorithms, a trend that has become one of the most relevant for mining in 2025. “Artificial intelligence is becoming an essential tool in mining. Veracio has been developing these types of solutions for more than 15 years, positioning us as a trusted and proven player in this transformation,” added Molina.
Veracio’s scanning technologies combine robust hardware designed for field operations with intuitive software that delivers detailed results within hours.
Through the use of X-ray fluorescence and hyperspectral spectroscopy, the systems generate mineralogical and geochemical information without destroying samples, significantly reducing the need to transport them to external laboratories—thereby lowering time, costs, and the environmental and social footprint of mining operations.
“Peru is a cornerstone of our regional strategy due to its role as one of the world’s leading producers of critical minerals for the energy transition. Local companies are seeking to enhance efficiency, and our solutions can contribute significantly to that goal,” said Molina. According to the Ministry of Energy and Mines, in 2024, the South American country remained the world’s second-largest copper producer. It ranked among the top five in gold, silver, and zinc, reaffirming its strategic role in the global mineral supply chain.
Through its participation at PERUMIN 2025, Veracio reaffirmed its commitment to advancing more efficient, digitalized mining practices aligned with current environmental and social standards. The company aims to pursue new partnerships, technology pilots, and tailored services for the Peruvian market, in line with its vision of transforming the industry through reliable, real-time data.
