Hi from a long time lurker.
Jesse (and others), thanks very much for the great info and analysis provided. I'm certainly not a pro at this, but you folks have added to the knowledge base considerably. This cyber method of information dissemination has really helped us 'little' guys play in the big game with the real money players. A level playing field helps, although there is no way to level out insider tactics.
A thought about all the discussion on 'signatures' and 'magnetic anomolies' keeps percolating through my brain and maybe someone can comment on it
I understand that indentifying targets is complex, and as such, "Digital Topography", seismic information and magnetic signatures probably all relate to some degree.
Much has been made of flying the properties to find anomolies and then trying to figure out what is kimberlite and what is worthless. If MEO or any other junior wants to know what a real kimberlite 'signature' looks like, why don't they (or have they already?) just do a fly-over of ACA's numerous confirmed sites. This will, at the very least give them an idea of what to exclude. It's not like it's restricted airspace, no surface to air missiles this far from Iraq. I would think that maximum leveraging off of the work that ACA has already done would be the first order of business. This type of creative or sly, but not unscrupulous? thinking should come naturally to most penny stock directors so I would assume that it probably has already been done.
After that, it shouldn't be too hard to find someone in the ACA camp that will provide some insight into the other methods involved in their success. A bit of well placed 'incentive' should get the proper info. (more on this later)
Just musing... I don't advocate improper methods but really, this is a multi-million dollar game here and should have the best info guiding it.
Does anyone know if MEO has flown ACA's property?
As well, standard practice in most businesses is to hire professional people away from competitor companies to provide the necessary knowledge for success. Good people cost money but the hiring of just one of ACA's people should help add millions, or hundreds or millions to the pot. Something that I wouldn't complain about. I remember several past releases from involved BH juniors that stated pro's had been hired away from NWT companies. There was even Russian and South African talent discussed with respect to Buffalo Hills juniors but when looking for Alberta diamonds, why hire expertise from some other geographic, or geologic area. Folks who have already found diamonds in BH should be as highly sought after as year 2000 programmers right about now. One would think anyways.
Maybe MEO has already hit and this rambling will be rendered moot, but if they miss after spending massive sums on what could then be considered a misguided drill program, well..... I guess it's the old MEO mantra: stay positive, stay away from what if's until they become what happened's
Apologies for rambling but after a couple of years in this play, I'm just starting to second guess everything. I'm still long, it's next week that I'm having trouble with. To trade or not to trade (and how much?), that is the question.
BTW, after this is all over, let's all meet somewhere temperate, the tropics are just too hot.
Regards,
