It is interesting how your random thoughts parallel on of our favorite scenarios; we get project approval (aka environmental permit) then instead of exploiting the property we sell our MOA to the highest bidder at a hefty premium.
Well last week Sanz gave project approval and could have said Crystallex will not mine the property. Now you offer that the Ruskies could buy out our MOA - sounds reasonable.
Unfortunately the hefty premium part will be lost in the twisted intrigues of flailing, incompetent, Venezuelan socialism.
