Integrated Mining Technologies Piloting Center
Testing Facilities Network
Our commitment
CIPTEMIN is a non-profit corporation that has testing areas in real operational conditions or equivalent to those found in mining operations, so you, as an innovator, can validate your solutions to mining problems through pilotage, for the development and technical improvement that allows its escalation, ensuring the transfer to the industrial sector and promoting national innovation for world-class mining.
We are a Technological Center for Piloting, established within the framework of the Corfo Innovation. Strengthening and creation of technological capacities Program, which seeks to create and / or strengthen infrastructure and advanced human capital in technological entities.
CIPTEMIN aims to become the largest pilot center available to companies and suppliers in the mining sector in the country, being an international benchmark in pilotage and validation of mining technologies.
OUR VALUE, Speed Up of Mining Technologies
We design protocols and apply procedures to pilot and validate technological innovations based on international standards, accelerating technological developments for the mining industry.
