Pascua Lama
Pascua-Lama is a project involving open pit mining of a field of gold, silver and copper in the high mountains south of Atacama on the border between Chile and Argentina at an altitude of over 4,500 metres. It has been the cause of controversy and public protest in Chile, including demonstrations and petitions presented to the Chilean government.
