I have been watching this project for many years and I was in and out many times. I never lost many in because I recovered with many up and downs we had. I see now that we are close, cannot put the finger on the day exactly on the day, but timing is excellent and all starts are aligned for gold.
I also studied the Chavez's behavior and personality during all these years; he is no as stupid as we think. He will put this mine in production, the best timing for him to get the max of his gold. It will be a significant increase for gold price, BUT for a several number of years (each peck is 5 to max 7 years)...each up has a down; there is a cycle in the gold price. He cannot afford to miss this cycle. Do not forget that Chavez is just one person; his people are starving while they are sitting on the biggest reserve of gold not mined yet….
