Argentine provincial resource management

Overview

Developments in Argentina involve various provincial initiatives regarding mining and environmental conservation.

In Salta, the Secretariat of Mining is working with the World Bank to create a technological system for real time monitoring of mining projects. This digital tool is intended to complement physical inspections by allowing officials to access project data remotely. Meanwhile, in Río Negro, the state company EDHIPSA has begun administrative procedures for uranium exploration in the San Antonio department, covering several specific areas including Los Gemelos, Cerro Chenque, and El Álamo.

In the provinces of Neuquén and Río Negro, authorities are also focusing on conservation. Neuquén is modernizing wildlife and fishing controls through the use of drones and a new monitoring center to combat illegal practices. In Río Negro, the legislature approved the Corredor de los 5 Grandes Natural Protected Area, a large marine protected area designed to connect existing zones and protect various marine species.
