Placing Bets on Colombia: Paul Harris
Any body knows how long prefisibility study stage will take ? The location of Saturban park? The definition of Paramo eco system?
TGR: What about Eco Oro? Will Angostura eventually become a mine?
PH: Eco Oro Minerals Corp. (EOM:TSX.V) owns Angostura. It’s at the prefeasibility study stage. I think Eco Oro is waiting for three things—the results of its prefeasibility study, the location of the Santurbán Park boundary and the definition of the páramo ecosystem.
The Santurbán Park boundary has been defined and—surprise, surprise—it didn’t impact any of the ore bodies defined by the companies exploring in that region. It still remains for the government to define a páramo. How and where it draws that line could have an impact. Perhaps the most important of those three things for Eco Oro is the prefeasibility study.
