Since its founding in 1986, M3 Engineering & Technology Corporation has specialized in mining project design, procurement and construction management. These projects, both domestic and international, commonly include unique challenges requiring experienced process and detailed engineering expertise. M3 has grown and increased its service capability to the mining sector in times of low metal prices and now high metal prices to the point that today it ranks as one of the largest and most experienced minerals oriented engineering companies in North America.

In 1991, M3 assisted Hecla with the La Choya Gold greenfields project in Mexico. It was the first foreign owned project allowed under new Mexican mining law. Since then M3 has averaged one completed greenfields project per year in Mexico to a constructed value of more than one $1,000,000,000 (1 billion dollars) on the largest project. M3 is also doing large greenfields projects in the U.S. and Canada including three large copper projects in Arizona.
