Dear Elizabeth & Peter,

biz.yahoo.com

This doesn't look good:

"At March 31, 2002, Kemess Mines Ltd. had forward sale commitments with major financial institutions to deliver 420,000 ounces of gold at an average accumulated price of $298 per ounce. These forward sales commitments are in the form of short dated spot deferred contracts. A portion of the position will be brought into income in 2002 and a portion will eventually be rolled into future years as part of the Corporation's commitments under its $100 million project loan."

This looks really bad:

"As at March 31, 2002, Kemess Mines Ltd. had outstanding call options of 400,000 ounces of gold exercisable at an average price of $301 per ounce. The total premium received from selling these options was $1,942,500, which will be brought into income during the second quarter of 2002 as the options expire or are exercised."

400,000 ounces of call options @ $301 SOLD and coming due this quarter?????

John.
