A New Large Mining Project Is Expected In San Juan

A new gold, silver and copper Project is expected to begin operations in the province of San Juan, with an estimated initial foreign investment of 3 billion dollars and production that would last for almost 50 years. It is called project Constelación, as proposed to the government by the Canadian NGEx, which holds advanced exploration programs in Chile and Argentina, a company listed in Toronto Stock Exchange and NASDAQ.

The project Constelación is the joining of three mines already owned by NGEx, two of them in San Juan, in the border with the province of La Rioja, and the third one in Chile, in the III Region of Atacama, with distances between them of around 10 and 15 kilometres.
