Latest Press release (23May) from the Salta Province. Nothing new to see here just confidence building for the local mining industry.

I've highlighted the last paragraph.... Maybe she needs to read this part again.

Ministry of Production and Sustainable Development Salta News Mining 05/22/2023 11:43

The NOA mining provinces vigorously ratified the original ownership of natural resources in view of the progress of lithium nationalization projects in the National Congress.

Sassarini expressed together with the provinces that make up the body the defense of the original and constitutional property of natural resources

The Secretary of Mining and Energy Romina Sassarini , from the second vice presidency of the Federal Mining Council (COFEMIN), stated, together with the provinces that make up the body, in an energetic way, the defense of the original and constitutional property of natural resources in the face of advances of projects on the nationalization of Lithium.

He stressed the importance of creating a favorable environment that attracts investment and promotes sustainable growth in the mining industry. Likewise, he rejects the debates in Congress that address issues in contradiction with the National Constitution and generate uncertainty.

Salta has worked hard to strengthen its institutional framework and has experienced significant growth in terms of employment and development thanks to the mining industry. However, it is essential to have a stable legal and political framework that provides legal certainty and guarantees the viability and continuity of mining projects.

The mining industry requires long-term investments and goes through prospecting and exploration processes that can take several years before obtaining productive results. Therefore, the official from COFEMIN urges to support mining development based on established agreements and to avoid debates that delay growth.

As always, have a great day Argonauts.
