The plans are to build the 20,000 tpd plant and concurrently optimize the project and expand to a rate YTD. The current reserve and resources drilled and modeled at Las Cristinas are very large (as demonstrated in the 2007 updated 43-101 technical report filed by Crystallex on SEDAR) and recognized around the world. With additional drilling, exploration and a more current gold price assumption for modeling should grow further and thus the size of the optimized operation is expected to be a multiple of the initial 20,000 tpd plant.

Crystallex expects to finalize the partnership agreements in July, seek shareholder approval in August, and close the transaction in Q3, 2010. I would expect more details and progress updates to be issued as they unfold. Crystallex has the opportunity to have a 1/3 stake in one of the largest projects in Latin America and the world (and the project scope and scale should not be constrained by capital requirements.

I would also expect the research and institutional community to revisit and follow the story, partnership and Crystallex once again.
