Na audiência esteve presente o CEO da Barrick, Aaram Regent, quem havia visitado em fevereiro ao governador de San Juan, José Luis Gioja, com a finalidade óbvia de organizar o encontro com a ex-presidente, para acelerar o projeto de mineração binacional Pascua Lama, questionado no Chile e na Argentina por causa do efeito prejudicial que pode ter sobre geleiras e áreas periglaciais dos Andes, que é o principal reservatório de água potável de ambos os países.
