mjg; I have long since learned that the DD of many spec funds is far from rigorous, and depends on some research and then an odds playing exercise, where they will put 1/2% in this and 1/2% in that and so on over a group of high risk plays. I think if you look at the Midas fund you will find this pattern.
I would like to see some amplification of their BRE-X cautions, Barricks precaution was the reserved right to drill some holes and do their own assays. An estimated cost of around $50,000 with use of drills already on site. When BRE-X refused this Barrick walked. For 200,000 shares worth, say $6 =$1.2 million a $50,000 due diligence is defensable. Did they do that??, or read some papers and go on trust??
The only valid DD here is a watched drill hole, samples of core/grit watched, and sampled and split and sent for assays at two labs capable of the nickel sulfur fusion test.

The old reports from museums are also useless, as they are stuck in the mud of old tech, and so I am just really a hopeful skeptic suggesting ways for IPM to cut to the chase.

But they do not. why??
