Message: Court Approval of Settlement Agreement Between Crystallex and Venezuela

The affidavit indicates the settlement is believed to be the largest one Vzla. has ever agreed to.

In the Golde Reserve settllement, Vzla. agreed to pay a $1.032 billion settlement, which included $240 million for the mining data (which was not part of the ICSID award). The GRZ ICSID award  only covered the estimated value of the mine plus the interest, which at the time of the settlement added up to $713 million (see attached link).

The KRY award by the ICSID was set at close to $1.4 billion, with interest representing about $200 million.

So, the swttlement with KRY is supposed to be above $713 millon but below $1.4 billion. I cannot imagine KRY agreeing to anything below $1.0 billion. 

Time will tell.
