“Untapping the earths
gold and hydrocarbon
resources at every level”
Mining and Energy
Focusing on the earths
mineral and energy
resources, Tobie Mining &
Energy works through
above average social and
environmental standards
to discover new and
previously overlooked
deposits.
Tobie Mining & Energy is
presently exploring
reservoir opportunities
in Colombia, South
America. Tobie’s
hydrocarbon recovery side
of our Energy Division,
actively searches for
primary, secondary and
especially tertiary
exploration and
extraction opportunities.
Our tertiary efforts in
extraction are innovative
and swiftly convert an
often difficult or even
abandoned well into a
producing asset.
Gold
Gold
was probably
first found on
the ground and
used by
prehistoric man
as a tool. The
first known use
of gold was in
parts of
central and
eastern Europe,
in 4000BC.
Highly
sophisticated
gold art
objects and
jewelry dating
back to around
3000BC have
been discovered
by
archaeologists
in the Sumerian
Royal Tombs at
Ur, in what is
now southern
Iraq.
Gold, like no
other metal,
has a
fascinating
history and a
special place
in the world.
It is used in a
range of every
day
applications
essential to
modern life.
Gold has long
been considered
one of the most
precious metals
in the world.
The main uses
for gold are
jewelry,
dentistry,
adornments on
buildings and
artistic
expression. For
thousands of
years it has
been used as an
ornament of
kings, a
currency and
standard for
global
currencies, and
more recently,
in a wide range
of electronic
devices and
medical
applications.
Gold's many
unique
properties have
secured it a
central role in
history and
human
development.
Gold has been
prized by
people since
the earliest
times for
making statues
and icons and
also for
jewelry to
adorn their
bodies.
Intricately
sculptured art
objects and
adornment
jewelry have
been uncovered
in the Sumerian
royal Tombs in
southern Iraq
and the tombs
of Egyptian
kings.
Colombia
Colombia is
rich in mineral
and energy
resources, with
a history
dating back to
the days of El
Dorado and the
Spanish
Conquistadors.
Today, the
country is the
world's leading
producer of
emeralds, and
South America’s
second largest
gold producer
and only
platinum
producer.
Colombia also
boasts the
largest coal
reserves,
second largest
oil, and third
largest natural
gas reserves in
South America.
This bounty of
natural
resources has
established
Colombia as a
top tier
international
destination for
exploration,
mining, and
investment
activity.
