Ogi and CD:

Thanks for your feedback on YBA.

<< the pilot plant work with Penoles looks very impressive.>>

I agree. It looks to me as though Penoles is footing all the costs of the plant (several million $). BacTech not only gets past the critical step of completing a pilot, but I think will also receive income on the metals produced. I'm not sure of the details of this and will try to find out more.

<<In your DD the one drawback with any new venture is how well capitalized are they and how readily can they obtain funds>>

I undestand they're doing a PP in the next week or so for $1 million. Presumably this dilution will lead to some weakness in the price. But with both Penoles and Rothschild as partners, they seem to be in a good position re future financing.

Interesting story....
