Solgold response to the infestor11 Mar 2019 21:48
This is about the infestors scaremongering tactics which I took up with Solgold.
The response is below and I hope the infestor reads it as I do all genuine LTH.
There is nothing for SolGold to be worried about in terms of illegal miners at Cascabel because there aren’t any. As you may know where there is visible gold at surface in developing mining nations, which there is in Ecuador, there are always illegal miners. The Ecuadorian government is aware of the issues in Ecuador and is doing everything they can to resolve this issue. It is a national government issue, not for the mining companies operating in Ecuador to deal with. Our support comes in educating the local communities in the difference between illegal mining and large scale mining.
I have just returned from a comprehensive tour of Ecuador, the US and Canada. We discussed the issue of illegal mining with the Ecuadorian Mines Minister, and I understand him to be fully abreast of the situation and is dealing with it.
