Alan Stephens, President and CEO of Coro, commented, "We are very pleased that the Public Hearing has been completed on schedule. It was attended by more than 2000 individuals and gave the people of Mendoza, and particularly the residents of Uspallata, the opportunity to express their views about the development of San Jorge. It was held in an atmosphere of complete calm, civility and with mutual respect given to opposing opinions.

The Company, through its subsidiary, Minera San Jorge, continues to follow a policy of complete transparency and frankness, and has stressed the economic and employment benefits of the project to Argentina, as well as a commitment to exacting industry standards in environmental management, and has invited citizen participation in the environmental monitoring of the operation.
