sasa, agapov is absolutely shameless....the article is titled "Rusoro gets green light"....then says "expects to start production of the precious metal at its Incredible-6 mine in the second quarter after securing government approval."

and again with agapovs "Rusoro also is the government's preferred partner to set up a joint venture to exploit Las Cristinas, Venezuela's biggest known gold deposit, Agapov said."

this a-hole could say "the sun will rise tommorow" and i'd have to question it....

i'm so sick of the russians and hugo! just give me a citgo station in lieu of a permit at LC and i'll be on my way......i once said that kazahkstahn made venezuela look like switzerland....i take that back.

investing in venezuela is like investing in the mentally insane....it's fun to watch, but does'nt produce much......
