Thirty-three-year-old MICROMINE, owned by Sydney-based technology-focused private equity firm Potentia Capital and the founding Tuder family, also has offices in Brazil and Peru.

MICROMINE regional manager Guido Perez said large and junior companies were developing new precious and base metals projects across Mexico. A solid pipeline of projects, competitive operating costs and rising metal prices were seeing mining activity increase, he said.

"Mining companies in Mexico are seeking to improve their operations and shorten project times," Perez said.

"This demand has opened opportunities for sophisticated tools for modelling and simulation to be applied in new mining operations, and MICROMINE is at the forefront in delivering these intuitive solutions. With a new office onsite in Mexico, our customers in the emerging mining centre will benefit from the very best software, exceptional service and unparalleled support."
