A group of about fifteen men chained themselves yesterday at the main gate of the building of the Corporacion Venezolana de Guayana (CVG) as an act of protest for being unemployed, because they have not been given the authorization to proceed with the project 6 Unbelievable .

Yesterday morning, the group woke up sitting on various mattresses and with their hands chained at the gates of the headquarters of the CVG as leverage to demand Minister Jose Khan to sign the execute the project and start work heavy machinery.

A 40-day conflict

Leonardo Guevara, one of those affected, lamented the situation that goes beyond 40 days and stated that for eleven days were moved from the town of El Callao to Puerto Ordaz to set up their tents and wait to be attended by the deputy minister of the CVG Haydee Valenzuela.

However, even though they held a meeting in recent days to the official, have not seen progress on their requests.

"We were chained from 3 in the morning and if we do not attend will do so again next Monday for our families receive between Wednesday and Thursday that will come to support us."

He recalled that this issue affects the creation of about 400 jobs and the expectations that were expected for this year with the start of the project is the production of 58 thousand ounces of gold annually. However, "at this rate we will not reach that goal."

On the other hand, reported that the Mayor of the municipality obstructs the beginning of the process as an industrial mining, so called on Mibam to clarify which focuses its efforts and ultimately what happens to the project. MHG
