CARACAS (Reuters) - Venezuela plans to build mines at its largest gold deposits with Russian help, the mining minister said on Thursday, apparently killing a years-long bid by two Canadian companies to develop the projects.
...and we thought we had a CONTRACT when all we had was a "bid"
"We have to rescind our relationship with a company that has been working in the zone," Sanz also said, apparently in reference to Crystallex. "We have a legal problem there."
They can't be referring to Vanessa. Wouldn't that be a "legal problem" for Rusoro as well (along with the KRY lawsuit sure to follow)?
