Lee, thanks. This is perhaps the most information and best (in detail) that we have received in quite awhile. We can now understand in general what the problems are. Regards, Bob

Lee: Let me add my appreciation for this very interesting post. It does give one hope, doesn't it? My only thought is one must wonder why, if they had processed some of GPGI's sludge or dore in the manner they described, didn't they show the folks what they had done? According to my source, who was present, they said hardly 2 words about GPGI's product, and even less about what they had done with it, saying that information was "proprietary." I do conclude that Wendell sounds like he knows his stuff and he fully endorses Jensen's approach to commercializing this type of ore resource. The problem I referred to above has more to do with Stan Wardell, the prior owner of Friendship, who as I understand it has now brought in Mike Wendell as a partner. It was he that was the principal presenter who made the presentation December 6. Regards, Jeff

Lee, Thank you very much for your post. I had not been following that thead any more, thinking it was dead and gone. The post by Michael reveals much that is germane to us investors. Rather exciting is the only way that I can describe it. It reveals much more work to be done by all concerned, but for me it is a bright light in a somewhat dim tunnel. Time will tell all!! The issues are rather clearly defined. Conventional refiners are not geared for these ores and I am glad to see that someone is working on the problem. Does anyone know if stock will be issued by Consolidated Noble. I would like to invest there will be an issue. Thanks also to Michael whom I consider a true expert in this area. His post clearly lends credibility to GPGI and what they are doing. Rome was not built in a day. I personally feel that this is a great beginning and that much greater things are to come for those who have the foresight and the guts to stick with it. When I tell someone that I have owned a stock for well over 10 years and it is worth less than I paid for most of it, they call me a fool. Perhaps!! Regards to all who own GPGI!! Maybe the Fool will have the last laugh after all, Jack

deltagold.com.au Mr.Jensen, if you read this, it may be time to talk to someone with some cash. The troupes are getting restless. Snakk med Delta, det er mulig di vil bygge det refinery du trenger. You have a lot of support and friends here. We are with you all the way. However, it is hard for us not knowing what is up with the refinery. Each of us on this board has an e-mail address, ask us what our investment name is and keep us informed about what is going on. You won't get as many phone calls.! VBG God Jul. Kaare

Well, reality can be painful. It certainly is discouraging to have come this far, to seemingly be so close, and to now learn that more months, years, maybe decades of ".. wandering in the wilderness" are going to be necessary before the refining problem is resolved. Where and to whom have the d'ore bars supposedly being produced on a consistent basis been going? GPGI is certainly living up to it's "..mad scientist" image. What's next, bringing back the 3 witches from "Macbeth"? Pass the bat wings. I feel a double-dose-of-Prozac morning coming on, here.

I consider this assesment by Mr. Wendell very good news for several reasons: 1) He has become involved with GPGI ore and associated problems. If you've read his posts you know his chemical geology and mining knowledge give new meaning to the word gravitas. 2) His writing tone is usually sober and cautions - yet here he says he is "excited" about the potential for developments with the dore' refining. 3) Finally, we have a reasoned, measured, unhyped and probably very accurate picture of the current problems and possibilities - one we can trust. This helps us know where we stand and I appreciate the posting. Regards, Scott
