Mexico’s Mining Industry

Mexico is a competitive destination for mining investment. An industry with a century-old tradition, mining remains one of the leading sources of income, employment and development in the country. But beyond the mineral wealth required to develop this activity, conditions in Mexico have made it one of the main destinations in the world for mining investment, surpassing countries that are richer in mineral resources.

HUATUlCO oaxaCa<br />

It’s hard to believe pirates once caused<br />

mayhem in these warm, emerald green<br />

waters where tourists now practice water<br />

sports. Today, Huatulco’s nine bays and<br />

golden sand beaches are a refuge for the<br />

marine turtle, which is a protected species.<br />

This is one of the few tourist destinations<br />

in the country to boast sustainable<br />

resource management, and because<br />

it is part of the state of Oaxaca, it can also<br />

lay claim to an enviable cultural heritage,<br />

immediately tangible in the friendly attitude<br />

of the locals, the creativity of its arts<br />

and crafts and incomparable food.<br />

Whether you choose to stay at Las Villas or Las Casitas, this<br />

resort guarantees a fun, luxury vacation for the whole family.<br />

Its spacious suites and relaxing pools command spectacular<br />

views of the sun rising on the sandy beaches of Violín and El<br />

Faro. The hotel staff will be only too happy to help you program<br />

fishing or horse riding excursions, or even a guided tour<br />

to one of the nearby coffee plantations.<br />

Tulum quinTana Roo<br />

This ancient walled city –originally called<br />

Zamá in honor of the rising sun– stands<br />

strategically atop a cliff looking out over<br />

the turquoise waters of the Caribbean.<br />

One of the most striking Mayan World<br />

sites, there is something for everyone<br />

here: the archaeological site and its thirteenth<br />

century temple dedicated to Venus,<br />

legendary cenotes, underwater caves and<br />

fascinating marine life that make for a<br />

diver’s paradise, tranquil beaches to sunbathe<br />

on, luxury spas to pamper body and<br />

soul, world class restaurants and a cosmopolitan<br />

atmosphere.<br />

Nothing is as rejuvenating as a night<br />

at this modern boutique hotel. Picking<br />

your way through the menu at their<br />

Thai restaurant is as interesting as<br />

exploring the surrounding jungle and<br />

the Martini Lounge is the perfect place<br />

to relax after an adventure-packed day.<br />

For the less intrepid, there are private<br />

yoga classes, or how about an open air<br />

massage in full view of the ocean?<br />
