    SYUNIK REGIONAL COURT TAKES OVER CASE AGAINST DENO GOLD MINING AT LAST

    ArmInfo. Syunik Regular Court has finally taken over the next case
    by the owners of Shahumyan district, Kapan, against Deno Gold Mining
    Company. The court will meet on Dec 25 2009, EcoLur NGO told ArmInfo.

    Residents of the region demand stoppage of the company's activity
    in Shahumyan region and compensation for damage cause to their lives
    and health. On 23 October the regular court of Syunik region issued a
    verdict which sounds a little bit misty "About prevention of danger
    to the life and health of Shaumyan region residents because of the
    mining activity at this territory". But it is not clear what events
    are supposed under the word "prevention". Some time later, in November
    the same judge Anahit Tumanyan rejected suit against DGM, grounding
    such a decision that no proof of threatening the life and health of
    people was presented in the materials of the case.

    Earlier On November 16 Ara Poghosyan (age 43) died in the underground
    mine operated by Deno Gold Mining. Specialists from the National
    Technical Safety Center investigate the reason of the incident. This is
    already the second tragic incident for the last two years. On January
    10 2008 an accident at Shahumyan deposit killed David Lazarian
    (29). No case has been initiated on this fact.
