Gold output doubles within a decade in Nicaragua

Thursday, August 17, 2017


Gold mining in Nicaragua, the largest country in Central America, is experiencing a sharp growth thanks to the arrival of foreign companies with the money and knowledge to tap into the nation’s reserves.

According to recent study by a local group of business development consultants, just by exploiting 0.3% of Nicaragua's land area, the mining sector has been able to double gold production and increase silver output by up to seven times in the last 11 years.
