Practice area
Mining
For more than sixty years, we have advised mining companies, investors, lenders, and service providers in Bolivia. Our practice supports projects throughout their lifecycle, including acquisitions, mineral rights, development, financing, environmental and regulatory compliance, operations, community issues, and disputes.
Overview
Mining remains an important sector in the Bolivian economy. Mining companies require a keen understanding of the country's market and regulatory framework to extract maximum value from investments in Bolivia. Increasing regulatory obligations, domestic and international reporting requirements, tax compliance, resource nationalism, and sustainable development are just some of the factors mining companies must navigate.
C.R. & F. Rojas has over 60 years of experience assisting domestic and international clients in the mining industry. We have represented publicly held companies, industry trade associations, private businesses, and individuals in commercial transactions and investments across the sector.
