The Hwini Butre concession covers mostly disturbed ground as the local miners have been working the area for years. I've seen pictures of the area and it definately looks as though the surface area has been worked. I don't think the locals could consider this area as being on environmentally sensitive land. Anyhow I guess this is a serious question that should be answered. Oh by the way. I still say forget the stupid chair. I am in the furniture business and I don't believe even one single right minded person will pay $1800 for a chair------- or does this thing fly or what is it that I am missing. Am I missing something ??? I wish I knew. I can't get the web site up as my computer sort of sucks----old and decrepid. Scott Scott

I think Ghana is pissed about the environmental problems from real miners - not the galamseys (sic) - this could significantly hurt Ashanti (as if they aren't already a mess) and is a pretty strong step for the gov't to take when thier national miner is in trouble.Could be that they are trying to scare the miners into agreeing to clean up or else. none the less - SJD has always been touted as an open pit and this is what the gov't is complaining about. SO be intersting to hear the SJD spin on this. They aren't drilling this yr are they?
