I agree. The CC I just listened to emphasized to me Khan was more interested in developing kilometer 88 I.E. Las Cristinas that developing LB. It made me think it was a negotaition tactic to take the focus off of Las Brisas and empasize more on the prize ...Las Cristinas. and yes, thiers nobody in thier right minds who would drop a single penny into Vz. kilometer 88 projects unless they were well allingned polically , had the capitol to start up both projects and absolutely without a doubt have the expertise fast forwarded like the KRY's and GRZ's 43-101's and engineering to provide the country.

Berlanger was asked by a caller how much he would take assuming his claim was in the $1.8 billion range and specfically asked if offered $500 to $600 million would he take it? He answereed he couldn't answer it based on the fact they were still negotiating. Makes me wonder what other reasons for the Vz. gov't to be so quick to claim the prizes. On that note, the CEO did state Khan was moving things in the right direction...pretty obvious from our resident moron rag manufacturer things are materially different than Dougs stance on the arbitration/negotiating process.

I beleive I mentioned before the two properties could be melded together but now it seems plausible one could conclude the progress were hearing and the steps taken by KRY's management are fitting towards a happy conclusion.

Man this has been a long wait.....

P.S. glad your'e back....We need Tuet to now voice his RM call.....
