Soma operates in an area with a rich history of gold production, mainly from alluvial deposits within river basins like the Nechí River. For more than a century, this region has been a hub for both informal small-scale underground mines and established mining operations. It’s estimated that the area between Nechi and Segovia has yielded over 18 million ounces of gold, not accounting for the informal mining, which is believed to significantly surpass formal production. Our mines and exploration projects are situated in one of the world’s most productive yet under-explored regions. Soma’s existing infrastructure, regional presence, and significant milling capacity allows for a business model with an accelerated timeline from exploration to production.
