Hello George.....Have you seen this.


Mining: Loan for Russian diamond producer collapses

MONDAY DECEMBER 8 1997

By Kenneth Gooding, in London

A $500m loan facility for Russia's biggest diamond producer,
Almazy-Rossi-Sakha (ARS), arranged by a group of western
banks, has collapsed.

This is a substantial setback for ARS, which urgently needs to
refurbish existing mines and finance new exploration.

Hi George, being the diamond guru that you have proved yourself to be on this thread,i was just wondering if you would like to join the gang at the ashton thread. Although you may not even hold shares or care too for that matter, your incite would be most valuable on that thread, positive or negative, it would be most appreciated.
Good luck all you diamond freaks, tried to get back in today at 90 but order never got filled hopefully tomorrow i can.
Alfonso
