So negotiations over the fate of Revemin is in the beginning stages...most likely part of larger negotiations regarding permitting KRY....and even though Las Brisas is "totally separate" from Las Christinas we can't rule out the possibility that timing of KRY permit news may very well be linked to resolution of the fate of Las Brisas. Vz. may want to resolve the fate of both mines before making the "big announcement". We also need to allow time for the lawyers to finalize all aspects of the paperwork. Bottom line....I really expected the permit this week. Perhaps that might still be a possibility if we get a conditional permit approval subject to formal processing of paperwork....but that possibility is rapidly fading.

BTW....whatever happened to the New Mining Law? Did I miss something? Just another variable floating around out there.
