are back for the gold in Chubut - Gemera defends mining as a growth option for the Plateau Chubut

17/09/2010 in response to "certain allegations against mining in the Central Plateau is making an organization outside the region."

In this sense, Gemera considered it appropriate to make some points that may contribute to a serious assessment of the future and quiet of this productive activity. "
"emphasize first, that despite the announcements of the presence of demonstrators identified with a view of opposition to the development of mining, this move failed to muster the support of local people, and just simply move from large urban centers to a small number of protesters' business association said in the statement that they signed their president, Julio Ríos Gómez, and the delegate in Chubut, Maria Cecilia Astutti.

"Always remember," he added that the Central Plateau region recorded a stagnant or declining population and traditional activities have ensured not guarantee a decent standard of living for all the inhabitants, given that it has increased the loss of quality of pastures, decreased sheep flocks and the young are few options for education and training in various technical and professional activities.

"We must not fool most people with arguments that, in fact, are completely false, and intended to be generalized to describe a negative to all mining. In the case of the Central Plateau is the specter of shortages of water, consumption of it by the prospecting work, when in fact surveys are providing information about the existence of underground aquifers exist at the date of discovery, which has boosted the chances of their use not only for mining but for all kinds of farming and ranching, "said Gemera.

In modern mining water is used in closed and recycled, which means that does not pollute streams or underground sources, or produce leakage or seepage. "

Finally, Gemera noted that "this information should be available to all stocks for now is to have a negative impact from an activity such as mining with unsound arguments and do not provide options for economic growth and of real social improvement."
