TSX- and NYSE-listed Yamana Gold has announced that the Agua Rica project, in Argentina, will be developed and operated using the existing infrastructure and facilities of a joint venture (JV) that it has with Glencore and Goldcorp in that country.
The integration of the Agua Rica copper project with the Alumbrera mine that the three companies jointly own, presents an opportunity to enhance project economics, reduce project complexity and its environmental footprint.
