There also exists a version of the flag with the coat of arms. The province was formed on June 12, 1989. Major industries in the province from what I can see are mining and agriculture.

the flag of the district of Ananea is visible. Generally, it appears to use a
slightly modified version of the municipal coat of arms.

image by Daniel Renterķa, 27 December 2023Like La Rinconada, Cerro
Lunar is also a mining town, being just outside of it. Cerro Lunar was created on January 28, 2004. Its
flag can be seen flying at Google Maps in front of the municipal government
building. Its name means "lunar hill", likely because the terrain it is on looks
like such.

the flag of Chuquine is clearly visible. On the hoist side is a yellow portion
of a circle, overlaid on a horizontal triband of blue, white, and green. In the
center is the municipal coat of arms.
Chuquine appears to be a newly
created municipality, 2017 according to Wikipedia and by seeing the municipal FB
page. Since it is so new, I have not found a record of when it became a
municipality. If we take the words of the government's Facebook page, then
Chuquine became a municipality on December 2, 2017. A Peruvian census recorded
the population at 267. It appears to be a mining town, based on the municipal
coat of arms, as with many C.P. municipalities of the district.

I did end up finding that Chuquine was created by resolution on November 30,
2017. And as I assumed, it finally took full force on December 2. Dates of
becoming an actual municipality appear to not be accounted for in Peruvian
municipal information documents, only dates the resolutions creating these were
adopted.

horizontally blue-white-yellow with a red triangle on its hoist side.

image by Daniel Renterķa, 26 December 2023At https://www.facebook.com/photo we can see a resolution adopting the fairly new flag (and coat of arms) of the municipality of Trapiche. This was done after a contest was started in the municipality on June 28 and concluded on September 24, 2021.
By Resolution N° 004 - 2021 MCPT/A, both the flag and coat of arms were approved on October 3, 2021. And also a bit of knowledge, Trapiche gained municipal status on December 21, 2001, so this contest was done just in time to celebrate its 20th anniversary; very likely, this was a major factor in having a contest for municipal symbols. The symbolism of the municipal symbols can really only be inferred, and thankfully the resolution provides the official images of the symbols in Annex 1 and 2.
The flag of Trapiche was created by Amadeo Gomez Quispe.

the flag of Pedro Vilca Apaza is visible. It is a horizontal triband of a dark
green, blue, and red. The district was created on March 17, 1962.

It appears Putina District either has no flag or uses the same flag as the
provincial flag. If the page on Wikipedia for Mayors of Putina is correct, it
seems that the mayor of Putina Province is also regarded as such for the city
(which I can confirm has no government) and district of Putina. Of course
though, it seems this is a ceremonial title. As a result, it appears that
administration for the district is tied very closely to the province, much more
so than other districts of the province.

At 10:32 in this video
https://www.facebook.com/watch/?v=499667041310360, the flag of San Juan de
Cayacaya is visible (albeit blurry). The shortened version of the municipality's
name is Cayacaya. The municipality was founded on December 18, 2002.

It appears this flag is also the winner of a contest for a flag and coat of
arms, in which its winners were announced on March 30, 2021. Unsure if there was
a previous flag, but considering the pattern of municipal flags in the country,
I would assume it was the Peruvian flag with the municipality's name on it. This
was done most likely in preparation for the anniversary of the municipality.

the flag of the C.P. municipality of Janansaya is seen. It is the state flag of
Peru with the words "CENTRO POBLADO" (status as a non-district municipality) and
its name, "JANANSAYA". It is a small farming municipality, 154 people being
recorded in a census. Janansaya became a municipality on October 6, 1998.

the population at 1649.
