A ship with 12,000 tons of bauxite sets course toward Canada from Cabo Rojo Port today, which marks the resumption of the mineral’s extraction and export, to benefit nearly all sectors in the impoverished community on the border with Haiti.
The cargo ship which brought the wind turbines for the second stage of the Junacho-Los Cocos wind park will also take the bauxite to Canada, said Ramon Chaljup, of the miner NOVAMAINI, which expects to exports around 90,000 tons of the material per month.
According to listin.com.do, 30 percent of the earnings will be placed in a trust fund managed by Pedernales authorities and community leaders, including governor Leovigildo Méndez, mayor Luís Manuel Féliz, senator Dionis Sánchez and parish priest Antonio Fernández.
