Honduras
A peaceful people of noble heritage, with strong ties to their neighboring countries and the U.S.
-
The mining industry presently represents 3% of GDP (2019)
-
S&P Honduras’ credit rating BB- with a stable outlook
-
Honduras passed a new mining law in 2015, with amendments added in late 2018. The law strikes a good balance of protection for investor-developers and the Honduran society.
-
Taxes are limited to a 25% Corporate Rate, a 5% Net Smelter Royalty and a yearly $10 per concession hectare cannon tax.
-
Business friendly jurisdiction with a long history of mining. Over 40 years of democracy with a stable democratic constitution.
-
Native indigenous people that habitat native lands represent less than 5% of the Honduran population. In all of Central America, except Guatemala, the indigenous natives were almost totally integrated with the European settlers, resulting in a mostly mestizo-ladino population
-
Honduras has a clear policy and a peaceful history in protecting native indigenous peoples and their lands, none of which are nearby in the El Paraiso department, where the mine is located.
-
The mine is located near the town of Yuscaran, approximately one-hour drive from Tegucigalpa (the capital of Honduras), on an asphalted two lane highway. Yuscaran is an historical mining community and its people are supportive of new mining activity.

UPDATED CONCESSIONS STATUS FOR THE MAPEME MINING COMPANY
As of January 4, 2021
-
Between 2019 and 2020, Mango Propiedad Exploraciones y Minerales. S.A. de C.V. (MAPEME) made considerable strides in developing a program for exploration and exploitation of a near term Gold-Silver mining project and reactivation of a former Gold-Silver project in the Yuscaran area of Honduras.
-
On of March 5, 2019, (MAPEME) received official notification of approval from the Honduran Mining Authority, INHGEOMIN, for their Finca San Luis y Finca El Mango gold-silver concession which overlies the Guayabillas Vein, consisting of 1,000 Has.
-
After thorough review of all exploration data by our Technical Department in the first half of 2020, it was determined that a 300 Has mining concession would provide ample access to the Guayabillas and other nearby Veins. We applied for a reduction of the Finca San Luis y Finca El Mango Concession from 1,000 to 300 Has. Our application was officially accepted by INHGEOMIN, on September 2, 2020.
-
Our Technical Department team also reviewed the history of a nearby inactive Gold-Silver mine tunnels to the Northwest of the Guayabillas veins, that had been actively mined from the 19th through the early 20th century. Our team concluded that the area had good potential for development under improved modern mining technology.
-
MAPEME developed and presented a 300 hectare concession application for the new area under the name “Ora”. The application was officially accepted by INHGEOMIN on September 24, 2020. Expected approval of the Ora Concession in early 2021 would bring MAPEME’s total concessions in the Yuscaran area to 600 Has.
