SOMINCOR
Sociedade Mineira de Neves-Corvo, S.A.
SOMINCOR – Sociedade Mineira de Neves Corvo S.A., was formed on the 24th of July 1980, after the discovery in 1977 of a deposit of sulphides, containing big amounts of basic metals, mostly copper, tin and zinc.
The initial discovery was made by the state company consortium EDM, Penarroya and BRGM.
There are five deposits of massif sulphides: Neves, Corvo, Graça, Zambujal and Lambador.
The mine is located in the Baixo Alentejo, on the left margin of the Faixa Piritosa Ibérica, at about 220 kilometers southeast of Lisbon.
In June 204, SOMINCOR, owner and manager of the mine, was acquired by Eurozinc Mining Corporation.
From November 2006, SOMINCOR was fully integrated in Lundin Mining.
In the aftermath of the acquisition of Neves-Corvo by Lundin Mining, the management has been focus on the operating improvement of the mine and in the exploitation of new resources and reserves on the surrounding areas.
