GREECE-VOTE-ECONONY-MINING-GOLD
TO GO WITH AFP STORY by Sophie Makris
A picture taken on May 1, 2012 shows local residents of Megali Panagia, Halkidiki, northern Greece, protesting against efforts by Hellenic Gold, a subsidiary of Canadian firm Eldorado Gold, to mine the Skouries quarry on Mount Kakkavos. Greece's desperate need for foreign capital, coupled with the sharp rise in the price of gold in recent years, has led to a renaissance of efforts to mine the precious metal. New projects are in the works in three places: near Perama in Thrace in north-east Greece, near Kilkis in the north and in the Halkidiki peninsula, both in the northern Greek province of Macedonia.
