No David, I said, if their holdings were put together, they would be a square of land a little over 33 miles on a side.
They own 1100 square miles, total. 2841 sq kilometers. 704,000 acres/640 = 1100 sq mi
This is about 45 square miles LARGER THAN THE STATE OF RHODE ISLAND , just to give you a feel for the immensity of the property they own!!!.
You may of been confused by my post because I was talking quarters of the land and total.
That means they own 1/2000 of the world's richest, resource laden Land. There is only so much. I wonder how much the government owns? The big oil companies, the Japanese, the mineral companies? Seems to me that we're sitting on a gold mine!!!
A shame that they are selling out so soon, but I can see where there would be a lot of interest shown in this much of the amazon that can still be bought.
Thanks for bringing that to our attention, David. It took you a while after I asked you, but I knew you would come through.
After this sale, and I personally think it will be quick, we are going to be very happy with a dollar a share CASH !!!
