epa03410436 Hundreds of cooperative miners of Bolivia block a route in the Pongo locality, one of the access to La Paz, on 25 September 2012, the same as Cochabamba, Potosi, Santa Cruz and Beni regions. The Bolivian government said today that the rival groups of miners, between officials and privates, should split the zinc and tin mine Colquiri, expropriated from the Swiss company Glencore last June, yet both sectors rejected the proposal.
