Elizabeth, I agree.....this stock is a short sellers dream come true:-))I have already had one good trade and I will have more....this reminds me of that Western Copper piece of garbage in Mexico....what a laugh that was....I am not aware of even one fine grained low grade VMS located in the America's and in production by the majors. There are a few large, high grade and fine grained deposits in production over in the Iberian Pyrite Belt...a good example would be the Neves Corvo deposit with a 30 million tonne high grade zone at 8% copper and 4% tin.....if anyone wants a 5 million tonne deposit at 5% copper, RTP has one for sale.....in case anyone is wondering, its hosted in fine grained pyrite.....good luck with shorting this one.....its like free money:-))

Elizabeth, There is still a lot of drilling and anomalies to go. Much to early to say how economical this deposit could be with what we know at this point. Teevee thinks this is a shorters dream come true - there will no doubt be a lot of volatility as the drills turn ..... whether that makes MAN a "shorter's dream" - I think not. A shorters dream is a stock that is clearly over-valued without any potential or chance of increasing that value. There have been many that fit that bill over the years. All Teevee is doing, is demonstrating his ignorance of what makes a good stock to short. At some point he may be right - but that point is not now. The right results could kill him/her. BTW Teevee - if you want some good reading material recommendations which describe the profile of the best stocks to short - do not be afraid to ask. The comments you have made above clearly indicate you are in desperate need of it. MB

Hope? It is only a matter of time. I see another 10 gravity targets aside from TG-1 and TG-3 on the map. TG-1 is 42 million tonnes; TG-3 another 40 million tonnes??; TG-6 another 40 million tonnes??; TG-4 another 40 million tonnes?? etc etc. That's a hell of a lot of copper, zinc, silver, and gold to ignore. I won't dump the 5 million tonnes of 5% copper teevee is raving about, but 100 million tonne base metal camps are a rare find these days. It's funny but the large VMS deposits usually average near 2% copper (e.g. Kidd Creek, Flin Flon, Horne).
