Ann: Galan Signs Pivotal Commercial Agreement with Catamarca Govt, page-173

Anyone care to think back a week, to when we were in the depths of despair and the sky was falling.

We had:

- wingeing that we were expected to contribute to government infrastructure;

- then wingeing that we wouldn't be contributing because we weren't getting an export licence, Phase 2 permits were about to be denied and Phase 1 permits about to be cancelled.

So, we've come out the other side and what know, we're wingeing that we're going to be charged royalties in line with many of the major mining jurisdictions.

At times like these I wonder if there are some that might be more suited to term deposits. Circa 5% return and principal government guaranteed, if you don't put too much in any one bank.
