JCP: Welcome to GPXM, I believe that we'll see over $1.00 per share this year.

Due to the extensive amount of research I've done on GPXM I feel very comfortable recommending it. But have no (intelligent) opinion when it comes to the other stocks or sectors you mention.

Best of luck to us. <g>

GPXM update from website:

January 25, 2006

Now that Earl Harrison's crews have linked up the by-pass with the original Sylvia Decline, the coming days will be occupied with a number of activities. The first step to restoring the old decline to functionality is for the miners to slab and grade the intersection of the by-pass to allow movement of equipment into the decline. This work is already in progress, with timbering and bolting underway. Utility lines and ventilation will be extended ahead, and the air quality will be tested. The resident air must be flushed out with fresh air.

From the point of intersection, inspection teams report that the old decline is open in both directions. The collapsed portion of the decline, extending downward from the portal, can be seen to terminate approximately 60 feet from the intersection. From that point forward, the decline is reported to be in excellent condition with all steel reinforcement sets that are visible appearing intact. Wire mesh that had been rock-bolted to the walls and back of the decline are still standing but some sections have rusted and detached, and these will be rebolted before crews can safely proceed further into the decline. Then clean up and mucking of loose material can be performed.

This process of inspection, ventilation, repair, cleanup, mucking and extension of utilities will be repeated several times as crews gradually work their way down toward the head of the decline. From the point of intersection, the distance to the face of the decline is over 1,000 feet. Depending on what is found, the process may take several weeks to complete. It is expected that some minor sloughing and cave-ins may be encountered, along with the need to shore up weakened sets and re-bolt wire mesh.

Returning the decline to a stable, and secure condition is the first priority. Once this process is complete, the ore body can be properly assessed and a work plan designed to begin extraction of the bulk sample.
