Crystallex International

EZ, sorry if you misunderstood...

i dont think the illegals will "milk" LC dry on a commercial level....these illegals have been working easily accessible pockets or veins...not the 1-3gr stuff we're looking for...basically, they've taken the gravy..but there's a whole lot of commercial grade gold left....

approx 60% of all gold production in venezuela comes from "artisan" miners...many recent articles have mentioned 1000's of illegals at LC (remember when the ten or so guys got killed in an underground tunnel recently?)

a recent photo of what was reported to be las cristinas in correa del corroni showed 2 (maybe 3) big ass pits (that looked a lot like graphs from the MDA!) i've looked everywhere on the net now and can't find it...

ask RM for an updated overhead of the concessions...i think we pay folks down there...maybe they could take a break in thier busy day and take a pic or two...
