THE TRENDING PRODUCTIVE ACTIVITY
AN INDUSTRY INDISPENSABLE FOR ARGENTINA AND THE WORLDMore than ever before, mining in Argentina has positioned itself as a strategic sector experiencing marked growth in the present and promising prospects for the future due to its extensive mining potential. With a variety of minerals and resources of importance such as gold, silver, lithium, and copper, the country emerges as a key player in the global industry and expects to attract multimillion-dollar investments in the coming years to launch major operations. These new mining centers will be crucial to meet the demand for critical minerals and ensure energy transition, a paradigm that is revolutionizing industries and in which the country is poised to be one of the most relevant players.
The primary mining operations are concentrated in the regions of San Juan, Santa Cruz, Salta, Jujuy, and Catamarca, provinces where the production and valorization of minerals have experienced a notable increase driven by the growing need to develop new technologies and sustainable production systems.
To address this auspicious scenario, Argentina boasts internationally relevant mining projects such as lithium mining, gold and silver exploitation in San Juan and Santa Cruz, and copper mining, with seven world-class projects in advanced stages; five of them located in San Juan. These initiatives have attracted investors from around the world, solidifying the country's position as an attractive destination for capital and energizing these renowned enterprises.
