Latest options deal looks bad, Steve.
After the market had closed for the weekend, the following item was released. Looks to me like it should have read gift rather than option. Priced at .50 cents, that's .33 cents under the market close - a 40% discount amounting to $77,000 and unlike the rest of us, the buying public, they won't have to lay out any cash. When the time is right, they can sell short and cover from the treasury.
There already are 1,180,000 options outstanding at .35 good to at least January 16th, 2000. There are also another 1,930,000 warrants outstanding at .70 good to April 15th, this year.
When I see that many bullets going into the gun, Steve, I get very nervous. Looks like a Turkey Shoot brewing and being a cash-on-the-barrelhead shareholder, I feel like the turkey. Think maybe I'll cool back on this one... go along for the ride and sell into strength.
Good news is we can now expect a drilling date soon.
