Yes, I had a long conversation with Mr. Thomas this afternoon. Needless to say, he had a very low opinion of Twiford. ... brought him up to date about their new reserves on the Hassy, he said that was Bu--s-it. Said "it was impossible." ... described it as weird. ... recall's that management (Jensen) was not really interested in devoting the time or money necessary to establish a mine but was more interested in manipulating and selling stock...

Now he's your highly regarded expert? ... was to ridicule the "high school teacher". Now he's your expert? Interesting indeed.

LOL Aren't you the guy who has a sister-in-law that works for the ADEQ? Aren't you the guy who said there aren't any PGM'S in the desert dirts? Aren't you the guy who says that Stillwater is & will be the only producer of platinum in N.America?

For goodness sakes HE is the developer. There is NO ONE to ask about it....he is the only one that knows!!! How do I know this for a fact?? I have called him "friend" for 39 years!! ... my wife have spent many weekends as Russ and Rosie's house... We were at his home (and lab) 2 weeks ago... I was in the lab with him... we were looking at the "platinum sponge" it assays @ 0.9948 pure platinum... they don't have to send it to a "refinery"... He is one of the nicest gentlemen that you would ever have the occasion to know. He will readily admit to anyone that he has been working on a process for at least 18 years... mostly going in the wrong direction. About 6 mos ago he encountered what I would describe as a "Eureka" factor that allowed him to reach this point in time. He could not do what he is doing now...6 mos ago. Thats the Gods Truth!! Does it work now?? LIKE A CHARM!!! EVERY TIME!!! Will they produce Platinum at the Mill??? Betcha ass!!! +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ ragingbull.lycos.com By: Walker2 Reply To: shorty12314 Wednesday, 22 Aug 2001 Shorty Thanks. What about Russ JV with USPS, Galleium, Texxon? Why JV with anyone? +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ ragingbull.lycos.com By: shorty12314 Reply To: Walker2 Wednesday, 22 Aug 2001 Walker.....Russ is involved with several other things, but it's not up to me to divulge them...you will hear about them when he's ready to take them public!! Sorry... +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ ragingbull.lycos.com By: jafco Reply To: shorty12314 Wednesday, 22 Aug 2001 Shorty1; You are right about Russ being a nice guy. I met him about a year and a half ago when I visited the Hassy. He certainly went out of his way to show what was going on at the time. +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ ragingbull.lycos.com By: gtowery Reply To: jafco Wednesday, 22 Aug 2001 Shorty, I had an odd conversation with a friend who does venture cap deals with small companies. He was contacted by a business associate who does the same thing. They are raising funds to take public a mining co using, you guessed it, gpgi's recovery method! These people are heavy hitters-not fools, nor scam artists. His comment "most of these co's are pretty flaky but the process WORKS!!! +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ ragingbull.lycos.com By: jafco Reply To: goofbunny Wednesday, 22 Aug 2001 Hey, goofy, you sound a lot like gotmilk / doug AK.

Running out of negative missives? Your minions running around like chickens with their head cut off? Feeling good and satisfied you are doing a good job? When are you up for a review? +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
