Sounds to me as though you have it all in perspective quite well. Please let me emphasize that I am expressing an opinion rather than a forceful argument. There is also a "local" factor here. We Maritimers like to support our own, so when a friend of mine asked me about investing in Acadian Gold 8 months ago because of the gold properties (not zinc) I said why would you buy an exploration play where there is a zero rate of success ( ADA properties involved in past failed efforts) in an area with no mines?? Let me give you some Mexican ideas or Argentina or Chile or Peru or Nevada, I said. Ada would not be my entry into gold exploration!!A couple of weeks later he said Hey, I bought Acadian Gold Mines!!!! Why? I suspect because it is a local story and we believe ourselves to be in God's country and therefore exceptional in the universe!:) Some of that money is in the stock. Mind you it worked for Gammon Lake and the original management there were just plain scary. I don't regret being out of it. Cheers, Ogi
