Delay in news release? Maybe KRY waiting until after the meetings were completed with the Environ Ministry. If you think about it they did not know what the meetings would hold and to pr this in the middle of the meetings would have been fruitless. My thinking is they waiting until the meetings were completed and they know wait for the outcome. Todays AGM was not really anything new because they may be waiting for an answer. It wouldn't be too prudent for them to talk about the meetings since they don' t know the outcome yet.

Take note in yesterdays press release "MinAmb was instructed by the Government to reconsider issuance of the Las Cristinas Environmental Permit". My guess Chavez has lit a fire to get this going. If the gov't didn't want this mined they would let the denial take its due course, but that is not the case. Secondly I believe I read Vheadline that Ortega was now on vacation. Lets see Hugo orders this to be resolved and during this time Ortega sent on vacation. If Ortega was so important in all of this wouldn't you think she would be included in these discussion and need to be around. I think we get the permit soon.
