I read that realease with some fear developing. Then I thought about what was actually said.

The only things new were that Sanz was talking about 'why can't we do this ouselves' and 'If crystalex can use the value of the gold to develope, why cant we'?

Very strange and very unproffesional to be airing VZ government 'THOUGHTS' in public. Why on earth would Chavez let him 'Muse' about why this and why not that......Except maybe in hopes of more 'posturing' to drive the price down.AGAIN

Nothing was said directly and succinctly about actually taking away KRY's contract. Even IF they actually planned on doing that, and could finance it, they woiuld have ten times the problems, ten times the work and for what? Probably LESS profit than if they went with the contract as it stands now.

Come on, is this really the first time Chavez/Sanz has thought of this? Give me a break... They are in a much worst position $$$$$ wise than they ever have been. AND, they are in worse standing with the financeers, and Banks. So why would it suddenly be possible NOW, to take it over and develope it themselves? ....Just children thinking out loud, hoping a hand from above will come down and make them competent.....and make KRY go away.

IMHO
