John, that was good reading. The one thing that you do leave out though is the possibilities. The possibilities are what make these high spec stocks so much fun to trade. The risk/reward ratio is what attracts investors to stocks like GYR. Thats why I have bought. I looked at the huge runup taking place in the Lab stocks fueled by the results from DML and it is obvious that the market is excited about the potential for another major find. GYR properties are 100% owned by GYR and do have the potential of hosting at least a a discovery hole. If it happens then the runup will be spectacular. Results from Okak demonstate potential and as a result the stock held up rather than seeing the big sell off that accompanies a release. It's sliding now but thats more of a result of mining stocks in general having suffered this year producing the compounding effect of tax loss selling. So long as drilling continues in the area this play has legs. If we have any more decent news out of Lab it will attract buyers and protect the Lab plays from the tax loss selling. DML is just half way through their drill program and they are now drilling targets based on understanding gained from the previous holes. Their chances are very good of hitting again and the area will benifit. I expect that GYR will continue to drill as long as they can and as such we have the potential of being moved by area results or by GYR results. I think in terms of news I would think that we can expect results into the new year that will keep this play alive. John I do lots of flips on stocks that are very volitile with big swings and big volume. Often I try to buy moments after an NR and hope for the best. Occasionally I buy stocks to hold because I believe in the potential. GYR fit that catagory and I am holding. The fact that Bruce is an active trader in my opinion can only help this stock to stay liquid and obviously produces some degree of support as well resistance. He may very well be selling at the top but if he manages to recycle it back into the company that indeed is a show of his belief in the long term future of the company. His private placements have been at reasonable market conditions and thats fair. John

YUP! John your right! I am a shareholder and have been over two years. This is exactly how Bruce Costerd trades. His hard earned money to buy this PP. BS!!!!! It is our hard eaned money! Trade with Bruce and you'll do alright. Not as well as Bruce, but you'll be much farther ahead than you are now. My thoughts! Rick.

John, interesting points. You seem to understand (more, or less) how junior spec plays work. If a property fails, you move to the next one. I think we all know and understand this. That is why the junior market is so speculative and volatile. If you want a sure investment, buy GICs. I do like your point about trading, when the stock drifts, buy it, when it runs take your profit. (gee, I wonder if that works with other stocks....) Some juniors put more money in promotion than drilling. Bruce has been putting the money in the ground, all those geophysics in Okak, and drilling on both Okak and Harp weren't free. Bruce does do most of the finances personally. The rules governing private placements make it difficult to open them up to the smaller investors. (if you remember back, Bruce tried to do this last year) You basically need $100,000 to invest. If you've got 100 grand, I'm sure Bruce could fit you in the next placement. Bruce does trade Gallery but, when Canaccord or Yorkton do a financing, do they do any different? Check RAN.VSE (Haywood), or CYP.VSE (Canaccord). Some Recent Financings (none at your magic $0.40 level) April 17/96 1,000,000 units at $0.75 (warrants @ $0.80) April 30/97 1,560,000 units at $0.50 (warrants @ $0.60) October 2/97 1,000,000 units at $0.50 (warrants @ $0.60) Cheers, Kent
