Muri Brazil announced on Saturday that on December 30, 2013, the company made a decision to no longer pursue its geographical and geophysical survey under the PGGS granted by the Guyana Geology and Mines Commission (GGMC).

Muri Brasil Ventures in a statement said that “although the process was legal and transparent, this decision is due to the misinformation, prejudice and hostility to this proposed survey by persons and agencies which are fostering an adverse investment climate in Guyana.”

Minister Singh in a statement on Sunday, January 5 noted that, “this pattern of anti-development behavior by the Joint Opposition can be observed as they have repeatedly protested any project geared towards the development of Guyana.
