Die Lage in Guatemala wird zunehmend brenzliger. Heftige Auseinandersetzungen mit aufgewühlten Locals halten an. Am Samstag sind sogar zwei Leute von einem beauftragten Sicherheitsunternehmen um das Leben gekommen. Die jüngsten Vorfälle spielen sich vor Goldcorp's (NYE.GG) Marlin Mine und Tahoe Resources' (T.THO) Escobal Projekt ab, das 2014 die kommerzielle Produktion erreichen soll.
