1Uruguay: Controversy Over Open-Pit Iron Ore Mining ProjectOrogoay: Resabe Momba Ny Fandavahana Lavaka Tafo Lanitra Ho Fitrandrahana Akoram-by Ambanin'ny Tany
2A project to build an open-pit iron ore mine in Centro Chato - a village of 3,144 inhabitants according to the 2000 census [es] - in central Uruguay has divided Uruguayans.Tetikasa iray hanaovana lavaka hitrandrahana akoram-by ambanin'ny tany ao Centro Chato - tanàna kely iray misy mponina miisa 3,144 arivo araka ny fanisam-bahoaka taona 2000 [es] - ao afovoan'i Orogoay no mampizarazara ny Orogoaiana.
3While some see it as an opportunity for employment and economic growth, others are concerned about the environmental consequences and question whether the country will actually benefit from the mine's profits.Ny hafa mahita izany ho fanararaotra mba hananana asa sy hampitomboana ny toe-karena, ny sasany sahiran-kevitra momba ny fiantraikany amin'ny tontolo iainana ary velom-panontaniana raha tena hahazo tombotsoa marina tokoa avy amin'ilay fitrandrahana ny firenena.
4As reported by AFP at the beginning of June:Araka ny notaterin'ny AFP tamin'ny fiandohan'ny volana Jona:
5The Aratiri project, owned by Zamin Ferrous, a London-based minerals company, will cost an estimated $2.5 billion (1.7 million Euros), the largest mining project ever in South America, and equivalent to more than six percent of Uruguay's gross domestic product.Ny tetikasa Aratiri, an'i Zamin Ferrous, orinasam-pitrandrahana harena an-kibon'ny tany iray izay any Londona no foibeny, izay mitetim-bidy eo ho eo amin'ny 2,5 arivo tapitrisa dolara (1,7 tapitrisa Euro), tetikasa lehibe indrindra hatreto any Amerika Atsimo, mitovy amin'ny enina isan-jato maherin'ny harin-karena faobe anatiny ao Orogoay.
6For the past two years, the company has been permitted to prospect for iron on 120,000 hectares (460 square miles) of land around the village of Cerro Chato in the center-east of the country.Ho an'ny roa taona lasa, nahazo alàlana nanao fitsirihana vy tamin'ny 120,000 hektara (460 metatra tora-droa) amin'ny tany manodidina ny tanànan'i Cerro Chato any afovoany-atsinanan'ny firenena ilay orinasa.
7The report continues:Manampy ilay tatitra:
8In Uruguay the sub-soil belongs to the state, and it has asked farmers to let the company use their land to hunt for iron ore.Ny fanjakana no tompon'ny any ambanin'ny tany any Orogoay, ary izy no niteny ireo tantsaha hamela ilay orinasa hampiasa ny tanin'izy ireo hitrandrahana akoram-by.
9For relatively meager compensation, Claudia Perugorria allowed the mining company's digging machines onto her 47 hectares (116 acres), where she raises about 30 cows and sheep.Tamin'ny tambiny faran'izay kely, Claudia Perugorria dia nanome alàlana milina ny fandavàhan'ilay orinasam-pitrandrahana ho eo amin'ny taniny mirefy 47 hekitara (116 ara), izay iompiany ondry sy omby vavy 30 eo ho eo.
10Today, her pastures are scarred with traces of tires, craters and holes where animals may stumble and injure themselves.Ankehitriny, ny kijanan'ombiny dia rakotra dian-kodiarana sy lavaka izay mety mamingana ireo biby ka handratra azy ireny.
