Message: Cauchari Olaroz has already got 60 cases on site...

 

Thanks Pavel, very interesting article. So, Black swan did not fly away and continue to dominate worlds news and economy. That can really affect our investment. At least projected production date now in question.

 

 Here is translation:

they saw that their activity could decrease and even when some of the workers

the health and lives of hundreds of miners on the far
