There is now a CONTENT FREEZE for Mercury while we switch to a new platform. It began on Friday, March 10 at 6pm and will end on Wednesday, March 15 at noon. No new content can be created during this time, but all material in the system as of the beginning of the freeze will be migrated to the new platform, including users and groups. Functionally the new site is identical to the old one. webteam@gatech.edu

Las Bambas Concentrator

Bechtel crews are building the copper concentrator for a new mine high in the Peruvian Andes. Once the mine starts producing early in 2016, it will be one of the top sources of copper in the world. Two Georgia Tech alumni, Steve Curtis and Justin Norman, are helping lead the $8 billion project to engineer and build the concentrator and some of the infrastructure needed to even get to the site.
