Keep in mind it usually takes a 5-6 yr timeframe to get a mine approval process completed in Canada or the US, so the reality with this Project is, it essentially is on track - the MOA was signed off Sept 6, 2002.

"What we are signing today guarantees that the project will be completed exactly as set forth in the agreement. It is a solid and secure agreement that protects both of us in order to complete this project successfully." General Rangel Gomez said.
