You guys don't know what you got... I just stumbled accross this puppy, did you see today's news?? Luckily I was able to scoop up 100,000 shares at 25 cents.. not a huge investment, I know, but just think.. every 1/8 is $12,500 and when I sell it at $10 a share, well, Let's just say I'll be livin' somplace sunny.. ;-) They have 1/2 million ounces, expecting to pull out 30,000 - 40,000 a year at a cost of $125 an ounce... it doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure out that even if Gold was $225 an ounce, we'd still be sitting on our own little pot of Gold :-) I consider it a special gift at .25 a share, Glad I found it this low.. It's the only way I could afford so many shares, however, even at .50 cents a share it's a bargin, too bad for those weak hands who got shaken out on the way down.. they might just as well have held on to what they had, why take such a huge loss? and give your shares away to the Specialist or "Market Makers"? Does'nt have much further that it could go down.. only place left is up!! :-) And if it did move lower, you know I'll be picking up all I can.. Give this baby a few months to a year, and we'll all be rich!! We'll be sayin, "Spring is here, and I'm glad I got that VGZ to keep me warm all winter.." :-) Well, if ya have'nt done so.. check out the older news articles on this company.. you'll see why it will do just the same thing BCMD did, (.25 afew weeks ago, now trading 1 3/8 - 1 1/2) & BCMD still has a long way to go to, worth $40 a share easy, once they get further into production.. ok, I've said enuff, I'll stop back in and see what ya'll are saying when VGZ is $1.50 a share.. We can talk about where we are buying our summer homes.. :-) See Ya!

Disappointed, but I'm going to continue holding. The reason I began looking at gold in the first place was because of its poor performance over such a long period of time. It is a contrarian play for me. This company was small, trading below book, and had a producing mine. The recent write down was annoying, but tolerable. What I still don't like the fact that they hedged 85% of the production from one mine. I wish they were less hedged -- should gold take off, I'd like the maximum bang for the buck. If it goes to 1/8 I may buy some more just as a pure speculation. My shares were purchased mostly @ 7/16. Good luck lizard lick, Barry
