The project involves constructing a 143 km long, 36-inch diameter pipeline and three pumping stations, essential for ensuring a reliable supply of non-desalinated seawater, primarily used for copper and gold extraction.
By utilizing seawater instead of freshwater, this project aims to preserve the region's scarce freshwater resources, contributing to the sustainability of the local environment. This infrastructure is critical for expanding the region's mining activities and is notable for its sustainable solutions that protect local natural resources
