Don't know for sure VT. But judging from the reaction to BGI's and YMC's sterling news, perhaps the problem with these companies is they have great deposits of, heaven forbid, gold? Seriously though, I'm noticing a pronounced tendency to mark down these top quintile plays from four or five bucks an ounce to two or three of late. That's why nobody's exploring anymore, no payoff no matter what. ELD has 7.8 million oz of that genre, plus a so so mine. Enterprise value after adding back debt (US 15 m.) and subtracting cash (US 8 m.)is now US 22 million. Once I saw them close out the hedge book, I got aggressive here. Seems strange to me, and this one even assigning nominal value to a producing mine looks incredibly inexpensive. I've been averaging down. Picked up more at 26 yesterday. Looks like 24 tomorrow, I'm going for more.
