Canada's Khan Resources (KRI.TO), which had sued Russia's state-owned uranium miner ARMZ for alleged interference in its Mongolian operations, said the Russian Justice Ministry blocked the litigation claim. "We are not deterred by this temporary road block," the company said, adding that it plans to pursue other options in Canada, Mongolia and elsewhere. In a C$300 million lawsuit filed in August last year, Khan alleged that ARMZ and its affiliates interfered in the joint venture between Khan and MonAtom LLC -- Mongolia's state-owned entity. Khan claimed AMRZ sought to eliminate Khan's mining and exploration licenses in the country so that it could proceed with its own joint venture with the Mongolian firm. [ID:nSGE67J0JD]
