RE:Not All Is Fining in Mongolia RIO has already sunk so much money into the project, it is hard to back out now. How the hell you explain to your shareholders? Mongolia needs RIO expertise and capital to start production ASAP. The country is one of the poorest in Asia with history of corruption, and in need of economic development quickly. The country is encircled by Russia and China, RIO better have good relationship with these two also, otherwise you will have difficulties shipping products out. Country risk is extremely high. Hope RIO has a plan to recapture its initial investment in 3 - 5 years to lessen the risk. IMO, Casino is a much safer investment, providing 100 years of stable copper supplies. GLTA
