Chad; Just got in to this stock to-day as it was recomended last thursday on stockhouse. sold some starcore and Bailed in Starpoint. bad move selling starcore as it went up from .30 -to.40 right after. However I think this stock is way undervalued looking back to earlier this year and with all the potential. good luck to all ! morrie VSE: STS Starpoint Goldfields .19 STS remains one of our largest near and long term core holdings. They are literally and figuratively exploring for gold and diamonds in elephant country. STS has large gold concessions in Uganda, diamond concessions in Angola and several gold-diamond concessions in the DRC (which is their immediate focus). STS ran over $3 last year on news and expectations over their Yetwene diamond concession in Angola. When the company could not obtain financing in time and lost the concession, as Bre-X's debacle was unfolding, STS' stock price was hammered. Yetwene is now being put into production by another company. This summer STS moved on and continued to acquire very promising properties and completed several financings. They used their connections in Africa to obtain their DRC, formerly Zaire, concessions after an April coup in the country. At the time, this historic gold and diamond producing area was wide open for the picking. STS, in need of new projects in Africa anyway, was one of the first to step in. We soon expect to see technical reports and results from current sampling in the DRC, to be followed by a more aggressive exploration program. As the potential of these properties are better understood by the brokerage community, we believe this sleeper will again awaken. One of our members is a director of STS.
