guys, nobody is hoping this thing turns as much as me (except maybe GW)...but

there's no telling what chavez has planned but at least maybe they're doing something...i think the better news is that the venz are now talking joint venture with cemex....this bodes well for us imo

how could they hope to "double" anything without LC/LB? if they just go to a "communal" (the government watching the illegals dig and turn in thier gold before leaving the gates, leap of the frog comes to mind) system on LC and the surrounding area they may be able to double production next year if thier "illegal production" numbers are right....

the mention of producing silver struck me funny.....LC has what? 24mil oz's of silver...dont know about LB..

the "rich people" and "concession" talk is just that....talk..... i dont think hugo would know the difference between a contract/concession if it hit him in the head..and anyone that owns anything except for the government is a rich person....
