Hi Essam, I just posted this press release on the Carlin thread but thought it would be of interest to holders of Cornucopia because of the vested interest that they have in Carlin. I want you all to note my relationship in this matter so no one thinks I am touting this stock. I happen to think they are both good companies run by some very experienced mining people, but I would think that, even without my sons involvement.For your information: Here is a press release from Carlin. Looks like things will be heating up finally! I want to disclose to all of you that my son, Richard Roy is the co-owner of the investor relations firm for this company just so everyone knows. I don't know whether you could then call me an insider as I do not, nor does he, get any insider information. What they do get is any info of a public nature. They are experienced and were in the brokerage and investment community for a long time so if you want any info first hand, or a brochure on the company, or on Cornucopia, give them a call. I think personally things are looking up for this company and its sister company Cornucopia.IMHO. There toll-free # is at the bottome of this page.
Cheers
Shirley Owen

Gold and Diamond Exploration Update from Ghana, West Africa
The Company is pleased to provide an update on its news release of December 15, 1995 outlining activities on the Volta Diamond Project and the Chichiwere Gold Project in Ghana, West Africa.
Volta Diamond Project
Additional reconnaissance sampling of the alluvial gravels from the remaining three streams draining a 10 km long by 3 km wide corridor of prospective ground ("the Diamond Corridor") has now been completed. Results show that the samples from all five streams in the Diamond Corridor are enriched with both high diamond counts (greater than 40 diamond per cubic metre) and significant volumes of heavy minerals. Only 15 of the 21 targeted drainages identified on the property have been sampled to date.
The company has just received preliminary maps from a satellite borne remote sensing survey. Several elliptical features have been identified in the Diamond Corridor and will be targets of an ongoing bedrock diamond trenching program. Associated with some of these elliptical features are unconfirmed reports of native miners recovering diamonds from bedrock.
Chichiwere Gold Project
Work continues on this project and the company is currently awaiting the results of a considerable number of assay samples. An extension to the Upper Anomaly Vein has been recently encountered 50 metres north of where an eight metre interval produced 2.1 g/t gold. In this most recent trench, a 9.0 metre intersection of quartz containing minor amounts of arsenopyrite and pyrite was exposed.
