Commission fines Barrick Pascua Lama
The Commission for Environmental Assessment (CEA) Atacama again decided to fine Canadian miner Barrick Gold for another thousand tax units per month, about $ 40 million.

This, as a result of defaults on the miner incurred in monitoring plan of glaciers and meteorological data Pascua Lama Project, according to Radio Bío Bío SEREMI Atacama Environmental, Pedro Lagos.

This penalty is in addition to the previous fine of three thousand UTM ($ 120.37 million), imposed in March by abnormal water sanitation and breach of the plan devoted to the monitoring of glaciers in Pascua Lama.
