If you like the company enough to invest you should just go in person and introduce yourself as a shareholder and ask if there's someone you can chat with about the deposits in so'n so. The last time I did I got a very enthusiastic talkative geologist and leaned many things that were not in their PRs. It helped I knew what all their PRs said. The time before that I got a CEO who was fun to talk to but considered the spacing between drill holes proprietary. I wouldn't bother if it's the IR office, I do visit the mining or corporate offices if I know geologists work there. Sometimes IR is farmed out to these boiler room subcontractors that may forget which company you called about and just go ahead and pitch all 3 of their stable to you anyway. All they know are the bullets they're fed. I'm trying to decide if I go to the Vancouver Gold Show this weekend. I've never been to Vancouver and keep looking for an excuse to visit. But, I'd spend many hours in airports and sitting on planes, paying for a rental car, parking fees, eating out. I was going to book it earlier and not have to pay United $75 for using my rewards points late. Thanks to to morons in the US government that decided I need a valid passport to visit Canada. They just revised that since it turns out they're taking up to 6 months to process passports now. I've been to several of these Gold Shows over the years and usually enjoy myself but I can't recall any great revelations that yielded a big return. The most memorable thing was standing behind the president (or CEO) of Diamond Fields at the 1993 Gold Show in New York while he railed on how whacked out DFR shareholders were and the stupid things they'd say to him and how he couldn't wait to get out of here while his minions were watching the expression on my face over his shoulder. When he finished he turned around to see what they were looking at and I stuck out my hand and said Joe Blow, shareholder with a stupid grin on my face. He pawned me off to someone else and walked off. I guess the best thing I get out of these shows is a general tone for he market. To go or not to go? That is the question? Oh well, I guess the State Department decided for me since I don't have their receipt: travel.state.gov
