Balala also revealed that royalties on minerals have been increased from August 1, 2013.
“The royalties were at a low of 0.01 percent and the government was barely making any revenue from the minerals,” added Balala.

Ati 0.01%?Laughing out loudly
Whoever set that rate should be tried for treason! Hehe. Or that is an error? Surely.

Royalties on gold, of which Kenya is a relatively small producer, would increase to 5 percent of gross sales value from 2.5-3 percent. For rare earth, niobium and titanium ores, royalties would rise to 10 percent of gross sales value from 3 percent previously, Balala said.

Cortec Honchos With Uhuru At State House Mombasa On 26th April 2013
(The suspended Commissioner of Mines was there too)

""We will support the development of the Mrima Hill Niobium and Rare Earth Project and the efforts of Cortec Mining Kenya but are keen to ensure that exploitation of the minerals benefits the Country. Commercial development of this project will have a significant positive effect on all the stakeholders including the local community, the Kwale County and the Country as a whole" commented Kenyan President Uhuru Kenyatta."

Cortec Kenya Limited may just be another briefcase company in Kenya whose sole purpose was to help manipulate/pump the stock price for Pacific Wildcat Resources Corporation at Toronto Stock Exchange...

This action would in turn provide the required finances for Pacific Wildcat Resources Corporation to buy the 70% stake in local subsidiary Cortec Kenya Limited from the UK based companies, Sterling Ltd and Cortec Pty...

It has also emerged that the company had not committed large resources to actual drilling to determine commercial viability and this in itself is telling...

Sadly, the announcement of a huge nobium find in mrima hills was pure speculation to pump the share price at TSX...NKT!!!

See the link for more information:

Cortec Kenya...Absolutely Bure Kabisa!!!NKT!!!

...besides, the presence of a safe alone does not signify that there is money inside...

"We didn't see that one coming," said a senior official at Cortec Mining Kenya, a subsidiary of Canada-based minerals and metals firm Pacific Wildcat Resources, which is scouring the coastal region for niobium reserves.

The official, speaking on condition of anonymity as the company was still digesting the announcement, said Cortec had not received official word from the new government that its licenses were revoked.

"We followed all the legally required procedures that culminated in our being given these licenses," he said. "I am confident whatever the reasons for the revocations, we are clean." He said if his company's license were revoked it could be recovered "without much struggle."

I know many of you will be against this but they are correct you cant just wake up one day and revoke licenses that were acquired legally its already in court lets see how it pans out but dont be surprised the govt loosing Balala was over his head on this one...
