I believe so too, the number is nonsense. I've read the reserve numbers are self reported by the regime. Also all countries estimates are at a certain price, so the higher the price the higher the reserves. Who knows what price his reserves are rated at, probably much higher than current prices.

OT, speaking of reserves at whatever price, reminds me of NGEX from their website Los Helados (69% owned) deposit alone indicated/inferred mineral resource estimate is with 26 billion pounds copper at $3.90/pound and 13.8 million ounces gold at $1800/ounce, 140 million ounces silver at $20/ounce. Very conservative imho. Lunahuasi (100%) looking huge as well, Valle Ancho in the on-deck circle, we'll see as further drilling Luna reveals more, hence market cap over $6 billion. All imho.
