In Chile and nearby areas of Argentina and Bolivia a pirquinero is a miner who extracts minerals in a traditional manner and is usually independent. A charactistic of the pirquineros is that they are involved in a wide range of stages of the production including mineral prospecting, extraction and processing. The activity is typically associated with low capital investments and the use of rudimentary technology. There are pirquineros that work on gold, copper and, in the localities of south-central Chile of Coronel and Lota, coal.

More specifically pirquineros in Chile concentrate in the communes of Diego de Almagro, Andacollo, Vallenar, Copiapó, Tocopilla, Chañaral and Taltal.
