The formalization process mining has not worked and over time has opened the doors to illegality and organized crime, said the Institute of Mining Engineers of Peru (IIMP).

To the president of the IIMP, Darío Zegarra, he stated that there is no activity in Peru that is carried out with such impunity and absence of State supervision. For this reason, he stated that Reinfo has been interpreted as a right to buy explosives, invade and detonate mining territories, beyond being a registry for formalization.
“The Reinfo does not go any further and it is key that it does not spread again, since its permissive nature encourages crime; in addition to contributing to the financing of violence and organized crime,” he assured.
Meanwhile, the director of Videnza, Paola Bustamante, stated that said registry does not have specific deadlines to be effective, and there is also no platform that allows interoperability between the regional mining directorates with the specialized agencies of the State, so that the information provided by the owner is lost in the process.
Likewise, he pointed out that synergy is needed between the Executive Branch, the Legislative Branch and the Judicial Branch to combat illegality and promote more responsible and sustainable mining.
It should be noted that the IIMP and Videnza presented an analysis of the barriers and distortions of the formalization process and warned that one of the main shortcomings noted is the responsibility to supervise this process.
