“The mining industry is booming. All consulting engineers have more work than they can handle. Many mining companies
are trying to move new projects toward production as fast as possible so that they may reap the benefits of high metal
prices. Inca Pacific is such a company with a greenfield copper-molybdenum project in Peru. Without MTB to coordinate
and manage our principle consultants, Inca Pacific would be unable to complete its definitive feasibility study on time and
on budget. MTB brings discipline and control to the engineering process, which today is more crucial than at any time in
recent history.”
