I guess the PLY question du joir is will the stock be available at 25 cents if and when they pull a few 100 meters intercepts of 4% zinc/100 gram silver? You pays your money and you takes your chances, but I'm in at 22 betting the odds are yes on the pull, and no on the 25 cents.

Thanks, Elizabeth.

I agree on the past. They seem to be spending a lot more in recent times on the property, i.e., MMI and geochem. analysis.

That would be my take, too.

I don't think WTC San Nicolas outcropped, did it? Not sure about Charcas.

I'm not sure that they have good outcrop to work with. The only cut into bedrock was from a water drill hole. This assayed > 1 oz/tonne silver, but I'm not convinced the drill hole was in the ideal location, relative to the soil anomalies.

Good points. It's a speculation at this point. I like the size of the anomalies, and the apparent high-grade zinc values along a N-S trend. It looks like a good speculation, if they handle it correctly (i.e., JV one of the 2 prospects).

Thanks for your perspective.
