Were GBGD's subsidiaries in Armenia declared Bankrupt?

I received a call today from my contact in Armenia confirming that this is actually the case. Not only that a declaration of bankruptcy was issued in  April  against all GBGD subsidiaries, but that a court appointed liquidator has been named too.

To this date,  Van Krikorian  has failed to post a copy of Linne Mining's letter or provide any clarification to investors, why Linne Mining requested to be "relieved" of it obligations.  Three months later, the reason for Linne Mining's actions have started to become crystal clear. Linne has been swindled by Van Krikorian and GBGD. There is no gold worth mining at the Toukhmanuk Gold Mine. Here is the proof. Two documents, which were prepared for Linne Mining, surfaced on the web last week. These two documents outline that the d
