Canadians are the best one in mining and Chavez knows that.
This gold reserve is big, must be mined by someone with vast experience and power to do it.
I see more probability that KRY gets the permit first and after KRY will be in the loop of someone with vast experience and power in mining, which will pay a fair price for KRY share(ex: Barrick Gold, Kinross, etc)
Russians will get something too, but not in this project. They do not have the expertise and they are not the leareds in gold mining.
This project is strategic for Venezuela, later, they will choose the best in mining….which in my opinion….are not the Russians or Africans(etc.)
