Crystallex International Corporation is a Canadian-based gold company with a successful record of developing and operating gold mines in Venezuela and elsewhere in South America
Only in Venezuela ....
Revemin, which uses activated carbon, the raw material received from two underground mines (Sosa Méndez and Colombia) and two open-pit (Hansa Union) and "tails" (waste) from the small miners. Gonzalez said that being processed 500 thousand tons of ore per day with highly trained personnel in Venezuela, compared to 800 thousand tons per day or when the plant was operated by foreign companies.
Since the reversal is also improved working conditions, an expression which says Gonzalez is the occupation at the approximately 220 employees, compared to 104 when it was operated by foreign firms.
..... could that be considered as positive results!
They employ more than twice the number of people (220 vs 104 previously) to process 5/8 the quantitity of material (500k tpd vs 800k tpd)...
Of course the figures are BS. There is no way that they are processing 500k tpd! That would be the biggest gold mine in the world on those figures. More likely 500 tonnes per day!
