In Bolivia, the Feria Minera Potosí opened on October 13, featuring over 100 companies and reporting a 300% increase in accredited miners compared to the previous year. Later in the month, the FEMIC 2026 Industrial Mining Fair was scheduled for Cochabamba, featuring an international forum on sustainable mining and business matchmaking sessions.
