The Minamata Convention on Mercury is an international treaty intended to protect people and the environment from the harm caused by exposure to mercury. The chairman of the international committee overseeing the Minamata Convention, Fernando Lugris, was in attendance. As a pioneer and leader in sustainable mining, Raptor shared its vision for Honduras, Latin America, and the world.

Our Meeting with Carlos Pineda Fasquelle

This year has been a great one for Raptor Mining as we continue to find supporters in Honduras who share our vision of Mercury-Free Mining. At our recent Q&A and presentation event, we had the pleasure of meeting with Carlos Pineda Fasquelle, Deputy Minister of Environment, Mines and Energy. Like us he wishes to find various alternatives so there’s safe mining to protect the community and his personal heritage.

Raptor Mining aims to change the unfortunate circumstances created by artisanal and small-scale mining. We hope to achieve this through raising awareness and education to empower and enable the people in these communities to maintain a better standard of living without sacrificing their health.
