At least they've stopped using the 'Winspear is encouraged by these results' phrase - I swear they had a stamp made up with those words - check out the old releases.
Yes, it would be great if they had the courage to talk to us here, eh.
Back in summer '97 during The Great Option Re-pricing Concert, Tomato's comment to that effect was the inspiration for starting up this thread #Subject-16262 - But it is not in Mr Randy Turner's nature to demonstrate that degree of respect for the minority shareholders, it seems, even if the smoke-and-mirrors Information Control people at the VSE encouraged that, which they don't, quite emphatically.
A lot of the geophysical and other info that we'd like is proprietary, too - it just can't be let out until acted on completely. Diamond exploration, especially in the NWT with short drilling seasons, is a slow and methodical business - George has made that point a number of times. They get the analyses back and make up drilling schedules based on them, it takes time. Not like a gold deposit on some nice warm mejicano site where you can drill for maybe one-tenth the cost per foot and get a quick cheap fire assay from the lab down the road.
Turner doesn't shuffle his paper around like an Applegath or a Trimble - he's longer and longer-term than any of us. One point in his favour, imho. |
