This is a list of mining areas in Colombia.^[1] The mineral industry of Colombia is large and diverse; the country occupies the first place in mining areas per surface area in the world. In pre-Columbian times, mining of gold, silver, copper, emeralds, salt, coal and other minerals was already widespread. Precious metals as gold,^[2] and silver,^[3] platinum, nickel and coltan are located in different areas throughout the country. Colombia is the first producer of emeralds and as per February 2017 occupied a ninth position in the production of coal, produced in almost all of the departments of the country.^[4][5] Platinum is mostly found in the Western and Central Ranges of the Colombian Andes.^[6] Copper said to have been produced during colonial and later times apparently came from small shoots which may have been worked primarily for their gold content.^[7] The largest gold mine in Colombia is scheduled to start operations in Buriticá, Antioquia.^[8][9]

Frequently, there are conflicts between the potential mining activities and the indigenous communities in the country, especially in the eastern, sparsely populated departments of Vichada, Guanía, Guaviare and Vaupés.^[10][11]
