To implement an operation of this magnitude, Antamina built a 118-kilometer highway that runs from Conococha to Antamina. This road is fully paved to transport employees and the necessary supplies to the mine. This highway is open to the public, ensuring a swift and secure access, benefiting many towns along the way. It is constantly maintained by the company. Grass has been planted to help prevent possible landslides under the reforestation program implemented by Antamina’s environmental group.

Electricity is another important factor for Antamina. Thanks to a 57-kilometer high tension line, the Yanacancha camp as well as all the mechanical installations located at the mine receive electricity from Huallanca (Ancash). Edegel, an electricity provider, provides electricity for the operation (100 MW) as well as for the Punta Lobitos Port.
