Minister Urges Trust In Expert Opinion On Amulsar Project

Expert opinion must be decisive for the future of a large-scale gold mining project in Armenia that was disrupted by protesters last year, Finance Minister Atom Janjughazian said on Thursday.

"I believe that one must rely on specialists and the results of audits and be guided by that," Janjughazian told reporters when asked whether he believes the Armenian government should allow the Anglo-American company Lydian International to develop the Amulsar gold deposit.

"A one-sided evaluation of any issue carries risks. No issue can be examined in a one-sided manner because there can always be a disadvantage alongside an advantage," he said without elaborating.
