Proyecto Megaminero PASCUA LAMA: El Agua Como Origen De La Vida
Proyecto Megaminero PASCUA LAMA: El agua como origen de la vida. “El agua es el elemento y principio de las cosas” Tales de Mileto (624 AC-546 AC. Filósofo y matemático griego) Alexis E. Aranciva Reg. 16547 DNI 31728810 “Cátedra Virtual para la Integración Latinoamericana” Introducción Se intentará elaborar un informe que aborde las características del proyecto binacional de explotación minera denominado “Pascua Lama” y sus consecuencias para la calidad de vida de los pobladores a un lado y otro de la Cordillera de Los Andes. El principal recurso afectado por y para la explotación minera es el agua, puesto que la minería demanda enormes cantidades de agua, y contamina las cuencas hídricas con metales pesados y sustancias químicas como el cianuro, entre otros. Considerando que el agua es el origen de todo tipo de vida en nuestro planeta y que es considerado un recurso escaso, lo que se intentará demostrar en este trabajo es la inviabilidad de los explotación minera a cielo abierto, que requiere grandes cantidades de este recurso tan valioso para el desarrollo y la supervivencia del ser humano como tal. Fundamentación Minería y Contaminación: Daño a los Ecosistemas La minería es una industria altamente contaminante, afecta de manera directa al agua, suelo y aire, lo que se traduce con el tiempo en efectos sobre las personas, animales, plantas etc. es decir afectan a los ecosistemas con las implicaciones ambientales de la actividad minera. La pregunta es ¿Cómo la minería genera contaminación? y ¿Cuáles son los efectos adversos asociados a la actividad minera? La actividad minera contamina, en primer lugar el agua, ya que para poder separar los metales de la roca necesita utilizar agua en grandes cantidades, agua que luego del proceso productivo se encuentra contaminada con elementos como cianuro y metales pesados tales como cadmio, cobre, arsénico, plomo, mercurio, hierro etc. -

The Porgera Mine – Papua New Guinea
To the Ministry of Finance Recommendation of 14 August 2008 Contents 1 Introduction 1 2 Sources 2 3 The Council’s considerations 3 4 Accusations of severe environmental damage and other factors 4 5 The Porgera mine – Papua New Guinea 6 5.1 Background 6 5.2 Riverine tailings disposal 8 5.2.1 Sediment load 8 5.2.2 Discharge of heavy metals 11 5.3 Environmental effects on the flood plain and Lake Murray 13 5.3.1 Mercury pollution 16 5.3.2 Health and social effects associated with the tailings disposal 18 6 Barrick’s response to the Council 20 7 The Council’s assessment 22 8 Conclusion 25 9 Recommendation 25 1 Introduction At a meeting held on 4 October 2005, the Council on Ethics for the Government Pension Fund – Global decided to assess whether investments in the company then known as Placer Dome, currently Barrick Gold Corporation, would imply a risk of the Fund contributing to severe environmental damage under the Ethical Guidelines, point 4.4. As of 31 December 2007 the Government Pension Fund – Global held shares worth some NOK 1,274 million in the company. Barrick Gold is a Canadian mining company, which, in several countries, has been accused of causing extensive environmental degradation. The Council has investigated whether riverine tailings disposal from the Porgera mine in Papua New Guinea generates severe environmental damage, and finds it established that the mining operation at Porgera entails considerable pollution. The Council attributes particular importance to the heavy metals contamination, especially from mercury, produced by the tailings. -

The Memorandum of Understanding Between Barrick Gold and Diaguita Communities of Chile
1 A Problematic Process: The Memorandum of Understanding between Barrick Gold and Diaguita Communities of Chile By Dr. Adrienne Wiebe, September 2015 For MiningWatch Canada and Observatorio Latinoamericano de Conflictos Ambientales (OLCA) “Canadians need to be aware of what Barrick is doing. The company is trying to make money at any cost, at the price of the environment and the life of communities. Canadians should not just believe what Barrick says. They should listen to what other voices, those from the local community, have to say.” – Raúl Garrote, Municipal Councillor, Alto del Carmen, Chile Introduction In May, 2014, Canadian mining company Barrick Gold announced that it had signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with 15 Diaguita communities in the area around the controversial Pascua Lama mine.i According to the company, the stated objective of the MOU between Diaguita Comunities and Associations with Barrick’s subsidiary Compañia Minera Nevada Spa in relation to Pascua Lama is to eXchange technical and environmental information about the project for which Barrick commited to provide financial and material resources to support its analysis. Barrick claimed that the MOU set a precedent in the world of international mining for community responsiveness and transparency. According to company officials, the agreements met and even exceeded the requirements of International Labour Organization (ILO) Convention No. 169 and set a new standard for mining companies around the world in their relationships with local Indigenous communities.ii While this announcement sounded positive, the situation is much more compleX and problematic than that presented publically by Barrick Gold. The MOU raises questions regarding: 1) Indigenous identity, rights, and representation; 2) development and signing of the MOU, and 3) strategies used by mining companies to gain the so-called social licence from local populations.
