The project involves the creation of a series of ceramic vessels built with clay from Belen and Hualfin, territories largely contaminated with arsenic, cadmium, mercury and sulphuric acids from Canadian mining. The vessels will be later gifted to the CEO and Corporate Social Responsibility executives of Yamana Gold and Goldcorp, both companies currently operating the Bajo la Alumbrera mine.
