Richard Fifer really knows what he’s doing…
Carlos Salazar specilized in the mining industry and an educator, has called Richard Fifer: “The father of the modern mining industry”. He introduced the new models of the modern mining industry with the best and friendliest technology for the environment and with a high level of safety.
Richard Fifer besides being a visionary, a geologist and a scientist, was the governor of the Province of Cocle. Some of the projects that Richard Fifer has besides Petarcilla, is “La Castilla de Oro” a project whose purpose is to remodel some of the houses in the villages to hostels of 6 rooms so that the owner can managing them for profit in Cocle, Veraguas, Herrera, en la Villa de Los Santos, Nata, San Francisco de la Montaña, Parita, Las Tablas to get more touris, from Spain, Europe, South America and tourist that are looking to learn about our culture and know more about these rural areas.
People who oppose mining activity indicate that this is what does the most harm to the environment, yet these negative comments are a direct result of lack of information and culture. In not providing the right information, people do not have a good overview of the mining industry.
We can say that Richard Fifer looks for the best geologist to work with; we can mention Ariadne Holmes that right now is in Canada, Carlos Carrasco, Luis Perez Monetengro, Ana Mendez and some other specialists that form a group of study for their projects. Richard really knows what he’s doing.
