View Case Study

Summary

Colombia prepared a CMM Country Profile in 2019 that described the national circumstances and identified and categorized 30 key stakeholders in Colombia's CMM industry. The U.S. EPA then conducted a pre-feasibility study to explore the possibility of CMM capture and utilization at the Casa Blanca Mine and determined that onsite power generation was the most viable option for CMM use.
