EDV likely retains good size holdings in BMO, NTO, Bolivar (now GFI), Oxus, HL, etc. It's hard to get a good handle on exactly what EDV holdings are and what % of portfolio. EDV has likely sold some or possibly all of these positions. I really like their Yamiri Gold purchase via TelcoPlus:biz.yahoo.com The coal mine purchase in Columbia was timely (Adobe Ventures):sedar.com and EDV appears to have a Long Term offtake agreement with Sardinia Italy for this Columbia Coal, and I believe EDV has some ownership/relationship with ENEL SpA, Italy’s largest power utility, in regard to owning the utility operations for Sardinia. It's really a tangled web trying to figure out the EDV portfolio, what EDV owns and what % of portfolio. If someone could better figure out exactly what EDV does own and how much, it would be much appreciated...!!
