yes it is very exiting for the permit to be so close but reading true the lines of what Sanz is saying to the media i do believe that there is something that they have to do before the permit; would it be :fix all the miners problems on las Christina territory or wait for Chavez being ready to declare "permit granted"for the maximum favorable impact on the incoming election or maybe both.Happy miners ,happy families= lots of pro votes.Just my 2cents worth.
