Canadian-Romanian Goldmine Project Draws Hundreds Of Protesters

The project has drawn criticism from environmentalists, archaeologists, historians and international organizations that claim the mine would threaten the environment and priceless Roman-era mining galleries.
"Yes to Culture, No to Cyanide," protesters yelled in Bucharest, calling on the government to propose Rosia Montana as a UNESCO World Heritage site.
Activists also protested against a draft law stating that mining is in the public interest and enabling mining companies to expropriate land as they please.
