I've got a pretty good database on most of these type of deposits. There will be a time to own them but I don't think it's now. The Pebble is a one billion tonne deposit that grades 0.828 grams gold equiv per tonne with gold @ US$300 and copper @ US$0.75 per pound. Not even close to economic. The property has, I think, outstanding exploration potential and it is one of the porphyry districts that could yield a structurally controlled gold deposit distal from the pile. Difficult targets, which require lots of drilling and a 15 gram threshold grade to work. Possible, but I'm going to wait for a few drill holes.

There is an interesting table in tommorrow's Barron's. It lists the best performing hedge funds for Q1. Our friends at Sprott had the best performing hedge fund, up 37.8% for the quarter, and 80.95% for 12 mo return. The article says "His (Sprott's) hedge funds have short positions in large cap-U.S. stocks including General Electric, IBM and Microsoft and long positions in gold shares." Interestingly enough, the 25 largest hedge funds have some fairly lackluster YTD returns, ranging from 7.23% YTD to -2.94% DB
