OT) Claude, of course AQI can do what they want. I did not mean to suggest otherwise. I'm only stressing my belief they will not move forward on this issue by themselves, if they do anything at all. Also, and according to AQI, "Calcatreu is a quartz adularia, epithermal gold deposit located in Argentina, recently optioned off Newmont Mining Inc by Aquiline Resources.. It was discovered by Normandy Gold in 1997 and passed to Newmont through its acquisition of Normandy Gold. Newmont decided to option the property in late 2002 when pulled out of Argentina and focused their Sth American efforts on Peru, where they have major operations." aquilineresources.com So, AQI did acquire it from Newmont, and even if they didn't, Newmont has residual interest in anything that accumulated to the benefit of Normandy. For the benefit of the board, I would suggest that this "off topic" discussion be moved to the IMA board, if anyone wants further discussion. Just a thought. Frankly, I'm not interested unless someone has something new, but I do respond to questions where I can. Cheers, VP
