Hatch is a global, independent management, engineering and development consultancy that has been operating for over 65 years.

Its network includes 9000 professionals over 150 countries around the world in the metals, energy, infrastructure, digital and investment markets.

Galan Managing Director JP Vargas de la Vega said he was delighted to award the study to Hatch.

Galan and Hatch will work closely together, alongside Galan’s other team of engaged consultants such as Ad-Infinitum, SRK and WSP, along with its own project teams in Argentina, Chile and Australia.

The study is expected to be completed late in the December quarter of 2022.
