Resinex has been cooperating with companies in the mining industry for years, providing different kind of buoys for the operations of big vessels that deal with loading and unloading activities of mining materials.
Starting from the early 2000s, Resinex provided 2 catamaran buoys for the Moma Titanium Minerals Mine, the world’s largest titanium mineral deposit, located 160 km south of the city of Nampula in Mozambique, Africa, and operated by the Irish company Kenmare.
The mining zone of Moma extended about 58 kilometres along the coast and 7 kilometres inland. About 660.000 tons of ilmenite, zircon and rutile were produced every year.
Resinex started to design and fabricate catamaran buoys since the 1980s and thanks to the engineering improvements and developments through the years, this kind of buoy still represents the excellence in the mooring buoy category.
Also London Mining, in 2010, requested various buoys for mine projects in Sierra Leone.
Resinex has recently received two new important orders in the mining industry: the first one for the Cobre Panama Project and the second one for the Mina Justa Copper Project near the town of Nazca, Perù.
In April 2019 Marcobre, owner of Mina Justa, purchased from Resinex mooring buoys in order to ensure safe and smooth vessels’ operations. The average annual production is expected to be 102.000 tons of copper concentrate and 58.000 tons of copper cathodes.

In the next months Resinex will take part in other mine projects mainly located in East Asia and Oceania, strengthening even more the relationships with the local companies.
