Cartagena de Indias, September 4, 2026. Mineros S.A. was recognized in the most recent edition of Brújula Minera 2026 as the top gold company in the country's reputation ranking and third in the sector's overall ranking.
The results, presented during the National Mining Congress organized by the Colombian Mining Association (ACM), reflect the organization's rise in key categories. In the evaluation conducted by sector executives, Mineros S.A. climbed to third place for its management and good practices. Likewise, in the industry workers category, the company moved from eighth to third place, reaffirming its commitment to employee wellbeing and organizational culture.
