Conclusions • Pb-Zn productions come from Miocene polimetallic and Lower Cretaceous VMS belt. • The future of Pb-Zinc endowment are located mainly in the Miocene polimetallic and Miocene Epithermal Au-Ag (by-product) deposits belts. • In the Pb-Zn belts the tonnage and grade of Pb vary from 5 to 2,800 MMT and from 0.04 to 10 %Pb. • The tonnage and grade of Zn vary from 9 to 6,000 MMT and from 0.1 to 14 %Zn in the Pb-Zn belts .

Conclusions • National Pb-Zn productions in 2014 were 278,000 and 1’320,000 fine metric tons (FMT) respectively. Reserves and resources of Pb-Zn are 22 and 52 fine MMT. Theresfore, productions are ensured by 73 and 39 years respectively (considering by-products). • Extensions of Colquijirca and Uchuchacua and starting operation of Accha and Minera Shouxin on 2017 will increase the national production of Pb and Zinc to peak of 340,000 and 1’480,000 FMT respectively.
