Twin Gold is an interesting sleeper. It appears that they have a very far north, but very good diamond property. What is holding them back is the strange Canadian diamond bias. Lots of companies in diamonds and lots of companies finding diamonds, like Band Ore, MPV, and TWG, but few getting any real excitement. The old guard (assholes) always whispered anti-diamond ... Even the Diamet discovery was poo-pooed. "The Australians are backing it.. its CRA/ BHP buying the stock.." as if that was a drawback.. The spectre of the futility of getting into diamond plays and bidding them up because DeBeers controls world trade.. has been oversold the gullible Canadian investor for far too long. Wakie Wakie Canada, there is real money in diamonds.. real money.. BTW, I see Hugo Dummet died in a car accident in SA. They should do an autopsy. He was one of the people instrumental in getting diamonds off the ground in Canada by backing Fipke in his grassroots exploration program. I spoke to him at the PDA at the Ivanhoe reception and he said he was interested in getting something going in gold in Canada at the time. EC<:-} EC<:-}

ird.to - did they used to be on the VSE as irm.a.v? ... i think so ... i looked at them just before and just after getting this computer in '96, there will be pencilled notes on it around here somewhere .... always with another, Vitran, for some reason, it was on TO, forget the ticker, trucking outfit, had a p/e and everything .... they both did, so that violated the Pez dictum of 'for a speckie, a profit is the kiss of death', so i only short-term had a few of the vtn.a or whatever it was .... mostly had banks at the time cnj.to - only glanced at it so far .... got a blindered mind focussed on precious metals at this time, rightly or wrongly, we shall see suf.to - best ask is 7.29 at this moment ... heh heh
