<<what they forgot to mention is that the modified gold fire assay was certified as NON-ECONOMICAL>> Wrong. They said the recovery process they have been using was found by Bateman to be non-commercial. Don't feel bad, I occasionally screw stuff up too <g> Regards, Otter

<< O.H. Particularly interesting in the news release was the bullish comments about having achieved a number of significant milestone - particularly the certification of a modified gold fire assay. What they forgot to mention is that the modified gold fire assay was certified as NON-ECONOMICAL >> Dave, Actually, the "nominated recovery process" was stated by Bateman as being non-economical. It is interesting that the company says " successful independent third party verification and certification of a modified gold fire assay procedure." There has been absolutely NO public information from the company stating the MFA has been certified/verified by a 3rd party. None. B-D didn't do it. Bateman didn't do it. Maybe the Arizona Lab did it? More spin..... bobs.

What they forgot to mention is that the modified gold fire assay was certified as NON-ECONOMICAL - Would you care to point out where you found this "certification"? A quote would be appreciated. Thanks. Bijan

<Will these people ever gain any integrity???? Likely NOT> I'd really like to know what you expect from a company's press release... would you like them to say: sorry, we bothered to spend years of our lives on this and are ready to give up? ...unrealistic expectation. I wonder how you read Newspapers or watch TV? Do you just believe all the stuff they tell you or can you read between the lines? I'd agree they were over-optimistic regarding the time schedule, but look at the task! Have you ever built a mine with a new process, in the face of dismal gold prices and a market full of major mining houses that wouldn't want you to succeed for anything, cause your cost might be lower than theirs? Most people have as many delays and problems just building a house. Then check out the stocks of some gold mining houses (ABX) and note the free-fall in stock price they've had at just about the same time. This schizophrenic thread is less believable than a detergent commercial and has given me no reason to doubt their integrity yet. sorry if I don't seem too friendly, but I feel you could fertilize nebraska with the contents of this year's posts. regards, Hagbard
