Croupier sez:Of course I did.

You didn't check out SQUAT! You simply cut an pasted what Marcos spoon fed you, like you usually do when you shoot from the hip, and made the mistake of not giving attribution or quoting in context...but then you don't do the full disclosure thing or the forward looking statement thing, either...so I guess we just have to put up with half-assed research and disclosure both from your ilk. Pity, really. You'd be a useful birddog, if you ever brought back the bird instead of just a beak!!!

For starters, I only told you last night it was a 4'x8' historical marker post I was quoting. So, you can't claim you knew that (that size fact) all along when I only posted the size last night. GOTCHA AGAIN!

Again, you say mining silver at those low grades was impossible...and again, I say Take it up with the Virginia City Chamber of Commerce and the mining historians down there...it is south of both of us, or are you going to debate that I should have said "check it out with them 'up there' " because of the ALTITUDE of Virginia City and the mine historical markers in full view? ROFL

It must have been profitable, dolt...why else would they have done so much mining for so many years if it wasn't for a profit?

I know, I know, I bet you think they were "Trickin' the women in the front office and collecting a percentage?" Virginia City was a pretty bawdy town, I will grant you that.

I didn't say I COULD mine that low of a grade at a profit, and
I didn't say I have done so, nor
have I said that it is possible in 2002..

What I DID SAY was that it was possible,
1) historically,
2) in a certain silver deposit, in Virginia City Nevada, USA
3) in a certain period of history, (pre-WWII)
4) in a certain CONTEXTUAL labor/wages/cap ex environment
5) and well documented in that historical area to this very day.

You want to debate a long, and celebrated piece of American/Nevada history???, be my guest. But you sure look stupid while you are blathering. Again, take it up with the historians.

NOW....Croupier,
As far as the 5c thing that has you so rilled up and strutting' as some almighty titcrusher (as opposed to ballbuster), obviously the math is: at $5 silver, 1 gpt works out to 16c per gram, or $01607561971514 to be more precise. (using 31.103 as my gram weight in a troy oz)

But since you can't read the Virginia City historical sign
or else your calculator can't do an additional chain calculation,
did you even bother to multiply the gram per ton number by the grade on the sign?
If you did, you would see the following:
at .03gpt silver values of that particular mine, according to signage,
that works out to only $0.005 of one cent per ton...
so, I made a simple typo and I left OUT a zero...it should have been $0.00482268591452 and I rounded up...So shoot me for a typo.

Sooooo sorry I left out a zero, and then rounded up....what a credibility buster you are...NOT

I suppose those silver values in that profitable, long lived historic mine at Silver City could have been part of some pre-war commie plot before we won the cold war, or a cabal hideout-PRE-gatastyle...I guess we could "debate" that....LOL!!!

Want the phone number or just the mailing address of the Silver City Chamber of Commerce?

You are sooooo busted!
