Memo Regarding the Sale of Firstgold Corp.
The Obama administration has pressed a Nevada mining company, Firstgold Corp., to withdraw an application it submitted along with Northwest Non-Ferrous International Company of China for approval of the planned sale of a majority stake in Firstgold to the Chinese-government controlled entity. In this memo, lawyers for Firstgold and Northwest detail a conference call that took place on Monday where the objections were laid out. The companies have until Monday to withdraw their application, or face a formal recommendation to the president that it be denied.
