Crystallex International Corporation is a Canadian-based gold company with a successful record of developing and operating gold mines in Venezuela and elsewhere in South America
Sorry but I have to amend the following:
The transcript has a search function so I was able to identify a few passages related to gold mining. I emailed them to a Spanish teacher at my old high school for translation.
One passage I did understand. Evidently the Chinese told Hugo that Las Cristinas is worth $100,000,000.
So now we know at least two things; the estimated worth of Las Cristinas and the Chinese have Hugo's ear.
When I Googled Chino, it came back Chinese. However my first translator just emailed his version and says that Chino refers to Mining Minister Jose Khan.
That changes the whole complexion of the translation.
