If I was expecting a butt load of gold to come into production, I would want a millitary man to be in charge.

Wannabe...I agree 100%. All this environmental talk and any "new mining law" means nothing if the illegals are still ruining the landscape and running amok. There are going to be a LOT of unhappy illegal miners....especially when they see the big bad foreign nationals taking "their" gold. Not all of the illegals are going to get jobs mining at Las Cristinas or in the artisenal mines. They'll be real pissed no doubt....not to mention the fact that it looks like the military will be needed to control the disgruntled CVG workers in the recently nationalized industries who are now understanding that they went out of the frying pan (private ownership of means of production) and into the socialist fire of total incompetence and lies. Who will bring them the toasted cheese now?
