3rd Cultural Ambassadors Meeting
On September 8, the third edition of the Cultural Ambassadors Meeting took place, bringing together representatives from different countries alongside the CEO and CHRO to connect Enaex Culture with the reality of our operations.
On this occasion, Tom Valdivia presented the initiatives driven together with the other ambassadors from France: Béatrice, Wassim, Nadine and Sarah, while Kaluan Moreira (Brazil), Marta Naranjo (Prillex Plant), Arístides Meléndez (Peldehue) and Exequiel Alfaro (El Peñón) shared the initiatives carried out in their respective roles.
Each presentation reflected a different way of living Enaex Culture: collaboration among ambassadors in France, the development of long-term technical capabilities in Brazil, the search for new ways of working by combining people, collaboration and technology at Prillex Plant, and person-to-person engagement in Peldehue and El Peñón. One element was present throughout all the stories: the sense of belonging that is built when people feel they are an active part of something bigger than their own role.
The meeting was also an opportunity to ask ambassadors to support their teams by sharing the invitation to participate in the contests launched as part of the “Let’s Make a Deal” safety campaign, as well as reinforcing the use of the Safety Box and encouraging continued recognition of those who live Enaex Culture every day.
During the session, ambassadors were reminded that the next meeting will take place on December 9. They were also invited to register to present the initiatives being driven in their areas and countries.

Integrated Blasting and Geotechnics Workshop for Slope Construction
On August 13, the Enaex Mining Technical Solutions (EMTS) team brought together specialists and customers in Arequipa for the Slope Stability, Blasting and Geotechnics Workshop. The technical event addressed experiences, best practices and challenges associated with damage control and slope management in open-pit operations.
The event included the participation of Hudbay Perú and Summa Gold Corporation, who shared experiences from their operations and contributed concrete cases to the technical discussion. During the event, Hudbay Perú was recognized for its drilling and blasting practices with preventive slope management, highlighting the integration of operational performance and geotechnical control.
Speakers included Héctor Villalobos, Geotechnical Specialist Manager at Enaex Chile, and Patricio Gómez, Development Manager at ITASCA, together with the EMTS Perú team, which organized the event.
At Enaex, drilling and blasting design integrates fragmentation and productivity objectives with the response of the rock mass and its impact on the geotechnical conditions of the slope, based on the premise that the slope is built and blasting is part of the construction process of the final wall. Under this approach, the company continues developing open-pit solutions that integrate blasting and geotechnics, combining technical expertise, new technologies and digital tools to support operational decision-making and slope construction.

ESG: From Reporting Requirement to Financial Value
Enaex Africa participated in the 27th edition of the CFO Leadership Summit South Africa, held in Johannesburg, where senior financial leaders explored the evolving role of ESG and sustainability in business strategy.
Representing Enaex Africa, Cristián Henríquez, Chief Financial Officer, joined an expert panel examining how organisations are integrating ESG into financial strategy, capital allocation and long-term value creation.
The discussion explored an increasingly important question: How can sustainability translate into measurable business value?
Topics included sustainability ROI, investor expectations, ESG-related risks, access to capital and evolving reporting requirements, with a strong focus on making sustainability commercially accountable.
A key perspective shared during the discussion was that well-implemented ESG can reveal the quality and maturity of a management team in ways that extend beyond what is visible in an annual report. As ESG moves from primarily a reporting requirement towards a broader financial value conversation, finance leaders have an increasingly important role in connecting sustainability commitments with business performance.
A valuable conversation on how finance can help turn sustainability from an obligation into an opportunity for lasting value creation.
