RE:Congo Mining LawI don't think so. KAT is up 67% since the new mining law was announced. The extra 1% royalty and 5% income tax is certainly not positive, but it doesn't appear to be a deal breaker either. There may be additional loopholes for mining companies that we're not aware of at this time. A little accounting magic soothes sore muscles. I don't know this for fact in this particular case, but there are usually means to reduce taxable income in general. That's what accountants are for.
