As part of an industry characterized by working on long-term projects, CAEM acknowledged that consensus is essential to generate policies that transcend government periods and circumstantial situations. In this regard, the entity that brings together mining companies operating in the country emphasized "the importance of this call and the crucial role of the provinces facing a new period for Argentina."

"The definition of a fundamental agreement lays the necessary groundwork for all productive activities, as growth requires certainty in legal, fiscal, tax, and economic matters. The main points of the proposed Agreement precisely address these areas, providing a solid framework for sustainable economic development," they added.

As part of the press release, CAEM stated that "they trust this to be the first step towards revitalizing the commitment to building an Argentina in constant advancement, with employment, growth, and a vision for the future, offering opportunities for progress for all its inhabitants."
