GoldenOrb pointGood point Golden.....maybe! People can correct me if I am in error but I think Angostura EOM starts at about 2800 meters elevation, the Paramo at 3100 meters. There is a huge difference between mining and a plant that can be removed once the mining is done. Has EOM been asked to remove the filtration system, is it in Paramo? Only my opinion but even if the Paramo restriction stayed in effect there is probably room for plant outside of it, but if it was in Paramo it only needs an environmental permit.
This is worth a discussion involving those that know the geography better than me.
