MINING IN SINALOA
A Three Centuries History





The mining industry development commenced in 1771
and achieved its maturity on 1794.
During 1804, mine production was concentrated mainly
in gold and silver in five different Mines in Culiacan.
Iron Ore operations began during the year 2007,
providing a first mover advantage to any potential
newcomer investor in the resources industry in
Sinaloa.
There are plenty opportunities available for an early
stage industry with an outstanding growth potential.
SINALOA´s commitment to the Iron/Ore industry is
paramount for our joint goals to promote, and attract
investments in exploration and exploitation, and help
you to achieve your business strategy by providing you
with a economically feasible iron ore deposit.
