3 Mining is the Best Country Brand. Manuel Viera Flores Ph. D. Business Ciences, Universidad Autónoma de Madrid. Magister in Industrial Engineering Universidad de Santiago de Chile. Senior Mining Engineer Universidad de Santiago de Chile. Ceo & Managing Partner Metaproject S.A. The country brands join characteristics that make them unique. In some cases it may be an artificial feature such as the pyramids of Egypt or the Great Wall of China or natural such as Chilean copper. Chile needs a business strategy that maximizes our mining brand, which leads us to be the world champion in both copper production and clean, safe and reliable production, with a proper distribution of wealth. That`s the task for the development of the worldwide brand. MINING BRAND Mining is art, and art is transformed into a strategy, through intelligent and articulate mine plans that maximize profitability for the owners, protecting the integrity of workers with high standards of safety, with no accidents and respect for the environment and the local communities.
