Founding and Vision

Our operations were born with a clear purpose: to promote, educate, and ensure safety in underground mining processes. Faced with an industrial landscape prone to geomechanical events, we drove a paradigm shift to demonstrate that structural prevention is possible.

Through the precise identification of failure modes, the appropriate selection of instrumentation, and advanced data analysis, we consolidated our technical expertise, rapidly expanding our capabilities from underground mining to open-pit operations, waste dumps, tailings dams, and highly complex civil works.

Chuquicamata Transfer Station

Following the station's collapse, we actively participated in the comprehensive design of the new geotechnical monitoring system during its rehabilitation and commissioning phase.

This work led to a pioneering solution that established the first post-failure stability criteria for excavations. Today, this methodological innovation is a global standard applied in both mining and the recovery of any civil structure that has faced a critical structural event.

San José Mine Rescue

In response to the national emergency caused by the collapse at the San José Mine, we were called in as experts to ensure the stability of the surrounding area.

Our mission was to ensure geomechanical safety throughout every phase of the complex search and rescue operations for the 33 trapped miners.

Collapse of the Fundão Tailings Dam (Samarco)

Following the emergency at this major tailings dam in Brazil, companies such as BHP and Vale requested our immediate technical support to assess the overall safety of the affected area.

The intervention focused on identifying, measuring, and qualifying the geotechnical stability behavior of the primary retaining walls adjacent to the tailings dam, mitigating additional operational risks.

Consolidation in Civil Works and Global Expansion

Currently, our experience transcends the mining industry to provide comprehensive technical value in the development of major infrastructure projects.

Our expertise is backed by our involvement in highly demanding urban projects, such as the construction of Metro lines (using NATM and TBM methods), the AVO 1 and AVO 2 highway concessions, and the execution of the El Melón 2 Tunnel.

With established operations in Chile, Peru, Brazil, and Spain, we are positioning ourselves globally as absolute leaders in geotechnical and structural control for mining, civil works, and specialized engineering projects.

Geosinergia begins its
journey and evolves
since 2004, here

More Information

The story of Geosinergia begins with Igor Bravo Benítez, a mining civil engineer from the University of Santiago, Chile. In his daily work, Igor identified a recurring problem in the industry: the lack of precise instrumentation and reliable data to evaluate ground behavior, anticipate failures, and ensure safety in mining and infrastructure projects.
‍
Faced with this limitation, he decided to develop his own solution, directly addressing the need for real, timely, and verifiable geotechnical information. This step marked the beginning of an approach that combined applied engineering, specialized monitoring, and technology.
‍
From that first solution, the initiative began to take shape and expand, giving rise to Geosinergia Ingeniería y Medio Ambiente Ltda. Over time, the work consolidated into a multidisciplinary team, expanding capabilities and adding experience in geotechnical, hydrogeological, and structural monitoring.
‍
Today, after years of evolution, Geosinergia operates in Chile, Peru, and Brazil, and has participated in projects in more than 25 countries, maintaining the same purpose that started it all: solving critical problems through reliable data, precise engineering, and continuous innovation.
