Argentinian elections heat up as resource sectors offer country platform for recovery
TORONTO (miningweekly.com) – It is likely that the new administration of Argentina, which heads to the polls later this year, will be more business friendly and market orientated, with mining and other natural resource sectors playing an increasingly significant role. “The money will start to flow in again once Argentina gets back on a good, responsible fiscal path. The country will then have an opportunity the likes of which it hasn’t seen in a century – since the heyday,” Argentina-focused project developer U3O8 Corp president, CEO and director Richard Spencer told Mining Weekly Online in an interview. However, with much of the world fixated on Greece and the ‘Grexit’ or China’s recent stock market wobble, Argentina’s economic problems appeared to have slipped under the global news radar. But they have remained a concern and have played a central role in the political campaigns for the country’s upcoming presidential and congressional elections.
