Peru Andes mining projects by helicopter
Many Peruvian mines and exploration camps sit high in the Andes, far from paved roads. Helicopters move geologists, technicians and supplies to camps and drill sites. SkyMatch coordinates requests with operators certified by Peru's civil aviation authority (DGAC). Flights depend on altitude, weather and site approval. Price on request.
