Erik. You certainly are a legend in your own mind. Now using your criteria for what makes a scam, then aber and diamet must be two colassal scams. Fipkes stock was trading on the Vse and sold to alot of people in BC who knew nothing about mining. Fipke worked for years with little success. Gren Thomas had worked in the business for 40 years developed a number of projects and properties which came close but no mine then he used the last of the company budget what he could beg borrow to stake the claims. Their stocks soared on news they had found uneconomic kimberlites. They had to plod away for another couple of years before they Announced results "too good to be true' and their stocks soared from 25-50 cents to 25 and 50 dollars. Not only that they started doing base line studies before a feasability study their pipes are "pathetically small and under lakes" so using your crritera unmineable and uneconomic. What a scam and they are still at it. They actually have people believing that there are diamonds in the NWT which are some of the richest deposits in the world and that they actually plan to mine them. Fipke went so far as to string a cable around the lake and run current through it so other companies couldn't test his anomalies. Both companies counted micros, uneconomic diamonds, with-held info from investors etc. You like to throw out outlandish statements to turn peoples cranks and get a reaction but at the same time you lament that no juniors or canadian companies are out there working, you shout scam as soon as one does. You have said that only white or clear diamonds have been found in the NWT, that is wrong even the Kimberlite at Dry Bones Bay has coloured stones. You talk of the chemistry being wrong, well it was good enough that Aber has spent millions looking for the source along with WSP but they thought they were looking for pipes, instead they found a dyke. A wide flat lying dyke/sill/ fissure. Aber backed out last year because they are stretched to the limit funding Diavik. The chemistry in the soils, boulders and core all pointed to a rich diamondiferous source with coloured stones, and with large daimonds. Alot of what you have said about WSP being a scam just doesnt hold water and if you apply it to other projects then Diamet and Aber are also scams on a colossal scale. What bothers me most is the way you belittle and show such contempt for anyone involved in this or those buying stock. No one is perfect Eric but maybe you should think some of your comments through a little more. You say noone will invest in Canadian companies and then when someone does you say they are naive idiots or sinister manipulators. You say it cant possibly be mined economically but using your criteria nothing could be mined economically unless of course you happen to own it. Maybe you have some reasons as yet untold for doubting WSP but so far all you have posted just doesnt hold water if one were to go from the start of this project and follow it through. Thats my 2 cents worth, one should always be on the look out for scams but I have faith in canadian juniors out there running projects to get the job done, thats why we have operating companies in Canada. Its frustrating that the prospectors, geologists and juniors dont get more support but that is the way of it. Fipke managed to succeed, so did Aber and maybe just maybe so will WSP. I wish them all the luck in the world and I hope we do have mineable fissure deposits in the NWT and I see no reason why we shouldnt. Mines are where you find them and how you find them. Speaking of which I head back to the bush today on my pathetically low budget project to find an illusive mine which others have missed, fool that I am. regards Walt Humphries |
