Except that's not the point of the protests. As I've been contemplating for a while, the nature of human nature is such that sooner or later that gold will be dug up. The backers of the protesters just want to dig it up themselves using a mine that someone else built for them. From the perspective of any real environmentalist, that's dumb because no one will take as much care of environmental concerns as we would. From the government's perspective, it's probably much of a muchness in terms of revenue, and since the optics can always be manupulated, potentially even advantageous politically. Hence the dragging feet.

You probably have more knowledge then me about the underlying motivations from the protests. But I do think the population there is exposed to this dispute frequently and they push the environmental agenda. So it would be political suicide to take over the mine and build it themselves now. At least not without a serious round of pro-exploitation propaganda before hand. 

What makes no sense from your assumptions is the fact that they blocked the access (and the progress) half way throughout the development. I think if they really wanted to take over a build out mine, they would have waited for Lydian to be at the finish line before sending in their protesters. 

Not sure what you mean about the uranium. Care to elaborate?
