New Gold is currently dealing with the Mexican Legal system to get an injunction to enable them to re-open the Gold mine which produces 30% of the gold they mine.

This is a risk trade...but the rewards could be worth millions to New Gold, and shareholders and the Mexican Tax department and the Mexican Labour Force.

With hundreds of millions at stake , any success by New Gold Lawyers to get the injunction to
re-open while they appeal all the way to the Supreme Court Of Mexico, is a risk you might be willing to take.

They have been battling since July 7 2010, and a decision on the court issuing an injunction is pending.

We have taken a position in the warrants NGD.WT.A $1.69 on the TSX and the A warrants run till 2017 so can be traded in and out fairly easily.

It is a much cheaper way to play New Gold ( sp is currently $6.17 per share.)

This is a high risk / high reward trade.

Be Aware Of This:

July 7 2010 Press Release said in part:

Upon reviewing the district court's ruling, New Gold plans to launch an appeal with a Collegiate Appeals Court in Mexico City. It may also consider asking the Mexican Supreme Court to hear the case.

"While we are disappointed by this most recent decision, we will continue to pursue all avenues to ensure the continuous operation of Cerro San Pedro," Chief Executive Robert Gallagher said in a statement.

If the latest ruling orders regulators to again halt operations at the site, New Gold intends to request for a new injunction that would allow it to continue to operate while it appeals the decision, said a company spokesman.

New Gold also said it is in ongoing talks with regulators to ensure uninterrupted operations at the mine, which is expected to produce about 100,000 ounces of gold in 2010 at a total cash cost of C$390 to C$410 an ounce.

Canada province, aboriginals in mine revenue deal

* Industry welcomes agreement

* Deal is on tax revenue from New Gold's Afton mine

* More agreements to follow

* Similar tax-sharing deals already in forestry industry

By Nicole Mordant

VANCOUVER, Aug 24 (Reuters) - British Columbia signed an agreement on Tuesday that will see Canada's westernmost province share tax revenue from the mining industry with aboriginal groups, the first such deal in the mineral-rich region.

The agreement between the Canadian province and the Stk'emlupsemc of the Secwepemc Nation was welcomed by the industry, which hopes the deal will improve relations between miners and First Nations people, and make native Indian groups more receptive to mining activities on or near their lands.

"It is the right thing to do. It is also good for business," said Pierre Gratton, President and Chief Executive of the Mining Association of British Columbia.

These agreements will help "to show First Nations right at the outset that there is something for them from our activities," Gratton told Reuters.

Native groups were not immediately available for comment.

Tuesday's agreement is expected to be the first of many in the province's mining sector, said Randy Hawes, British Columbia's minister of state for mining. The province's large forestry sector has been sharing revenues with First Nations since 2003.

The deal inked on Tuesday will see mineral tax revenue generated by New Gold Inc's New Afton project shared with the Tk'emlups and Skeetchestn First Nations.

Over the life of the mine, which is currently under construction just outside the town of Kamloops, some C$30 million ($28 million) is expected to flow to the two native bands, Hawes told Reuters.

Each agreement will be structured differently, he said. The government is signing its second agreement on Wednesday with the McLeod Lake Indian band on the Mount Milligan gold-copper project owned by Terrane Metals .

Hawes said that even though the province had a lot of large mineral deposits, they were often not that rich, making mining companies leery of potentially drawn-out and expensive battles with native groups.

"I do believe we have made B.C. a much, much more attractive place to invest," Hawes said.

In addition, the revenue should improve the social and economic conditions on native Indian reserves, he said.

"For me the bottom line is that there are so many kids on First Nations territories... The future must look bleak to some of those kids," Hawes said. ($1=$1.06 Canadian) (Reporting by Nicole Mordant; editing by Rob Wilson)
