Local Support

Spain is an amenable mining locale, one with a high unemployment rate providing an available workforce. Europe is a major user of no-lead electronic solders, so having additional production of tin in the region is welcome. And this part of the Andalucia region has mild winters and long, dry summers, a weather pattern that bodes well for causing fewer weather-related surprises.
