1. the ven central bank (khan) states it wants to build its reserves of gold.
2. khan is returned to his position at the mibam and CVG
3. the first and biggest meeting of the minds that i can remember takes place (including khan, rangel gomez, min environmant, military). lots of talk about the guyana plan, caura/coroni plan, etc...
boom! the military starts demolishing the "illegal/coop/artisan" miners..even those that claim they working legal co-ops....
the ven govt has effectively killed 60% of thier domestic gold production in less than two weeks.....with no stated plan in sight...
logic dictates that the venz had a plan when they started this "caura plan" to RAISE production and stem the illegal production...hence, a big start to legal production..
like most things in ven it just does'nt make any damn sense... the same thing happened about 4-5 years ago and then it just peetered out (with the help of the russians)...is there an actual plan now? is our PPS action tied to this or not?
one thing is for sure..our recent PPS acion has little to do with the POG and there has been NO news to support such a move...so either this is just another financial shellgame like we've seen before (but bigger)...or?
