According to the Mining Statistical Bulletin (BEM) prepared by the General Directorate for Mining Promotion and Sustainability (DGPSM) of MINEM, this year the Mining Canon closed at more than S/ 7,844 million, with transfers made in the months of January and July , while, for Mining Royalties, as of October the regions received a higher amount of S/ 2,735 million.
