According to me-metals cited from mining.com, The bill is an “initiative of the president of the republic, through the minister of economy, to approve the general law on metal mining,” lawmaker Christian Guevara announced on the floor of El Salvador’s unicameral legislative assembly, where Bukele’s allies make up 57 of 60 total seats.
In 2017, El Salvador became the first country in the world to ban forms of metals mining. Bukele, who took office in 2019, has called the ban absurd and supports gold mining.
