RE:BE POSSITIVE-SCHIFF KNOW THE BESTI guess the key from latest announcements is that the Colombian Gov't will NOT takeaway rights to companies that own them. Those who don't probably won't get them. So likely the only ones who will survive in Cali-Vetas will be the ones who already have EXPLOTATION and Environmental rights. I don't know what's the permit status on AUX, EOM, CBJ or GLW but I believe everything will point towards consolidation for those companies who don't have its permits in place (if AUX has them then I guess a bigger power is behind all this Paramo drama). And remember exploration and explotation are way 2 different regulatory stages permitwise. Maybe Larry or Schiff could enlighten us on the above. Due your own DD and GLTA. Mark
