AGORACOM NEWS FLASH

Dear Agoracom Family,

I want to thank all of you for your patience with us over the past 48 hours and apologize for what was admittedly a botched launch of our new site.

As you can see, we have reverted back to the previous version of the site while we address multiple forum functionality flaws that inexplicably made their way into the launch.

To this end:

1.We have identified 8 fundamental but easily fixable flaws that will be corrected in the coming week, so that you can continue to use the forums exactly as you've been accustomed to.

2.Additionally we will also be implementing a couple of design improvements to "tighten up" the look and feel of the forums.

Sincerely,

George et al

Bolivian Burglary?
South American’s Greg Johnson on the Malku Khota Expropriation Threat
By Kevin Michael Grace

The mining industry is preoccupied by three letters: CSR. They stand for corporate social responsibility, the idea that miners must care as much about local people as they do about their quarterly reports and share price. Greg Johnson, President/CEO of South American Silver Corp TSX:SAC, believes he has committed his company to CSR in Bolivia and that his commitment was recognized and appreciated by its indigenous people. To no avail, it would seem. After anti-mining protests escalated to near-terrorism, President Evo Morales announced July 10 he would revoke SAC‘s massive Malku Khota silver-indium-gallium project.

Malku Khota, located in Potosí Department, is quite a prize, even for Bolivia, a world leader in mineral production since the 16th century. According to a May 2011 NI 43-101 estimate, it contains indicated resources of 230.3 million ounces silver, 1,481 tonnes indium and 1,082 tonnes gallium. Inferred resources are 140 million ounces silver, 95 tonnes indium and 1,001 tonnes gallium.
