There are several places in the world one must go if one is serious in finding supergiant gold deposits. South Africa, Western South America, Central Asia, Papau NG-Indonesia and Nevada are places one must seriously consider. There are many world-class deposits outside of these areas, but the ones mentioned have a disproportionate abundance of very very large gold deposits. The economic viability of these deposits depend on the political and social will of the people. Certainly, capital flows in the past 5 years are different than what they were prior to that, and I suspect that it will change again in the next 5 years. Unfortunately, few if any mines can be found, developed, and extracted in any given 5 year period. Mines, particularly the world-class ones take 5 to 10 years to find and develop, and produce for decades. Companys must have this time-line in mind. Currently, TDC will focus on Canada, but will consider other opportunities as they arise. Dave

Phil, The word tyhee is "Lost at Sea" Old East Norse of North Germanic, European. Nova, Public TV "Lost at Sea: The Search for Longitude" Tells the story of the 18th-centurty clockmaker who developed a chronometer needed to measure longitude at sea. The latitude was easily determined with a temperature gage when used with a warming or cooling of the air or water temperature to determine if going towards the north or south pole. Hopefully I am not the only one forgetting which is which. latitude - Angular distance North or South of the equator. longitude - Angular distance East or West measured with respect to the prime meridian at Greensandwich, England home of the Earl of Sandwich.
