The need for foreign capital/expertise did not stop Mongolia from ruining the industry. Same for Venezuela, which is just raping its oil fields for now but they are not taking good care of the assets. Although I believe Ecuador,itself and Correa are far more sophisticated than the formerly communist Mongolians. I have decided to be out of Ecuador until I know the rules because I could not afford to lose my ARU profits if things went bad. For others a speculative allocation as you suggest Claude, ie DMM or ARU could be very profitable. I plan to look for juniors to buy there as soon as we know the rules. Cheers, Ogi
