Mr. Encina's operational record includes the start-up of six mining operations, commissioning of two 5,000-tonne-per-month processing plants, Sernageomin operational permitting, Enami registration and commercialization, negotiation of mining leases and joint ventures, and leadership of teams of up to 200 personnel.

said
Zachary Dolesky, chief executive officer of Super Copper. "With an upcoming drill program at Cordillera Cobre and ongoing work at Castilla, we need a proven operator on the ground managing our contractors, permits and development. Andres has done exactly this, multiple times, and we are very glad to have him join the team."
"Super Copper is building the type of project I have spent my career developing -- a high-grade copper target in the Atacama with strong geological scale and a disciplined team behind it," said
Mr. Encina, country manager of Super Copper. "I look forward to applying my operational experience in the region to support execution of the company's upcoming programs and help advance the project toward its full potential."
