Since I took the time to try this out, I'll post it, although the first one probably got the point across...this one just ties up a few loose ends in the word/swap area...one thing that stands out in all these articles is that China is a non-entity, yet we know full well they're involved...so in that sense, these pieces are propaganda designed for the uninformed V public, with the intent to slowly paint the Russians out of the picture and bring attention back to kry.

At least so say officials close to Minister Jose Khan, who recognize the intense battle between those who support the continuation of Crystallex and those who prefer the entry of another company as Rusoro or even third, but this time the Venezuelan government can be the natural resource managers and the manager of the farm. But any chance the CVG or the Ministry of Basic Industries and Mining, must decide what to do in the legal framework to rescind the contract with the Canadian transnational. Legal It should be noted that the contract establishes a set of conditions of the Corporation and Crystallex that were broken since 2002, including the management of environmental permits that would allow the exploitation of the deposit by the MNC, which falls on the CVG because yet the contract remains in effect until proven otherwise through Official Gazette or decree.

The condition is reflected in the ninth clause of the contract reads: "The Corporation processed respect to obtaining mining and environmental permits required for project implementation. In any case the time periods set forth in the contract does not begin to run only after obtaining these approvals or permits. "This is why, among other things, the Las Cristinas project has not started, because the environmental permits have been granted not only having the possibility of Canadian exploration activities on the site."

Negative balance. The downside is that Crystallex, according to complaints made to various state agencies, has done the same as also required by the contract signed as of September 17, 2002, just months after the then Ministry of Energy and Mines gave its permission for the CVG the deposit. These alleged deficiencies are related to the "special benefits" set out in the seventh clause in which Crystallex is committed inter alia to "continue the technical support to small-5 associations organized mining installed in the area of Small Mining Project. "

Continues-clause indicates that the company would build 30 homes in the local community of Santo Domingo, staff training in community management of machinery and equipment necessary for mining operations, development of social programs to benefit the communities: Installation and integration of water treatment plants white, construction of sewerage system and upgrading and paving of the existing road from kilometer 85 to Las Cristinas.

Documents and testimony gathered by Mail in Caroni repeatedly shown that some of these special benefits were not fully met. For example, the installed sewage system collapsed causing extensive damage to members of the community of Las Claritas. The protests and complaints from the miners and the community in the municipality Sifontes not been long in coming. Indeed, dissatisfaction with the entrance of the crime led the Mayor of Sifontes, Carlos Chancellor, and William Saud, miners' leader, a process of trial that ended in jail sentences.

Papa hot? Whatever the legal path in the case of termination of the contract between CVG and Crystallex or the contract between the Ministry of Basic Industries and Mining and CVG for Las Cristinas, which would give rise to the cancellation of previous the State must take a decision on what to do with the site and how it will become the "golden panacea" creating jobs and prosperity for the peoples of the south.

The announcement of the "nationalization" of mine who is 20 years without being exploited should be finalized in the coming days. Although it has been said that there is the possibility that it is delivered to Rusoro Mining is such a thing has been diluted with each passing day and the entry of an upcoming company in the mine is a mystery, so it will wait for the national government take the cards on the table to specify what to do with Las Cristinas.
