I have a very good understanding of this company and have a very good idea as to why they are so tight lipped.

My point exactly is it's all these traders who are content with pennies in the mining industry year in and year out. It's the same people over and over again. Joe public hasn't got a clue as to the potential value of this company; you know why? It's simple really because Joe public hasn't got a clue on how to read or interrupt drill results he could care less. The mining community and PMU has to make this more interesting and exciting and not so boring and dry. It's as if they expect and have conceded the fact that there sole audience is a pack of geologists in the investment crowd.

Joe public hasn’t got a clue as to who the management is, where the office is or even where their projects are located. Sitting around just waiting for drill results or gold to break $440 is not the way to market to Joe public. That's why we play around with small gains, of .50 up or down, that's peanuts compared to what the techs do.

Are you really satisfied with the stock sitting at a buck or even two bucks or even five bucks? We are breaking through a major bear market in gold, the light has been turned on, the writing is on the wall for the next four years, look around yourself and the world. Until the mining community wakes up and dusts off their marketing asses, we continue to play around with these small gains. I’m trying to say the word needs to get out, not just for this company, but for all of them. The last I heard it’s still only 1% of the North American community that invests in mining stocks, 1 percent!. I’m not the only one that’s thinking this way?

“This gets embarrassing. The amount spent on marketing is minuscule. The mining industry needs to seriously look at this and do more to promote gold," Wayne Murdy, chief executive of leading world bullion producer Denver-based Newmont Mining Co.”

We as a collective community with a vested interest need to fire this industry up and take away some of the spotlight shining on the techs. I don't agree that we should just wait for outside forces and drill results to market and expose this company's fundamentals.
