GYST In the case of the Manseriche Camp, the Maranón and Santiago rivers rise from peak elevations of 2,900 meters (9,500 feet) and 3,500 meters (11,483 feet), respectively. As they travel 900 kilometers (560 miles) through the Andes, they are fed by the Maranón-Santiago drainage basin, which is home to some of the world’s largest gold deposits and gold mining operations (including Yanacocha, Cerro Corona and Fruta del Norte). Near the base of the Andes, at an elevation of just 170 meters (557 feet), the rivers converge at the Manseriche Gorge. Then they pour onto a broad flatland and deposit their sedimentary load.
