Since pre-Spanish
times, the Nicaraguan mountains have been known for their gold and silver
deposits.
- The mines of Bonanza, Siuna, Rosita and La Libertad,
produced more than 100 million dollars per year between 1960 and
1970, almost half of that in gold.
- Recent geological studies of the region identify the existence of a 70
year reserve of gold in the area of La Libertad.
- The reserves are estimated at:
- Gold: 3.8 million ounces
- Silver: 4.9 million ounces
- The country has modern laboratories and trained personnel in the mining
field.
- All natural resources are state property and exploitation rights are
leased on a long-term basis.
