I for one would be against a purchase of additional mining land at any
price including for shares, for the simple reason we don't need it. The
Mike Thomas report on the Oro Grande came up with a TRILLION TONS(!!!)
of ore on the Oro Grande/Weaver Creek properties as I recall. That is a
136,000 year supply at 20,000 tons per day (if I did the math correctly).
And we are still in ore on strike and to depth at 700 feet, with only about
10% of the Oro Grande drilled. I am going from memory only here folks,
so don't hold me exactly to those figures above, but they are pretty
close.

I can only assume the subject property Jim Currie referred to must be
one suitable for, or existing as, a refining operation. That would make
a lot of sense, especially if we are going to increase production by
a major multiple.

Remember, we just spent about a million bucks ($ & shares combined)
on the Oro Grande, so I don't think Dick would entertain an additional
property consisting only of "dirt." This is just my opinion... I have
no personal knowledge of this from Dick Jensen or anyone else.

Anyone have any related thoughts on this?

Regards,

Jeff
