Hello there. Welcome aboard! I respect your opinion but do not agree with you. Just out of curiousity, what kind of diamond count were you hoping for? Have you ever followed other diamond exploration companies? If so, which ones? Which company has progressed as quickly as Ashton in 17 months of exploration. None! Hang in there and watch it closely, like I said your opinion is respected and you sound like a gentleman that would rather pay $10.00 and be closer to a commercial mine after announcing the gem quality versus taking a long shot at these prices. All stocks need buyers all the way up to new milestones. Good Luck and Keep Reading. Who knows, you may one day be a shareholder.

I remember early 1994, while having a Chinese lunch at First Canadian Place, a prospector/investor who knew my lunch partner very well stopped by the table and said that Aber was going to fly!! He was, and had been, buying all he could afford. I went home and researched all the past releases to check it out. Over the following months I read all the new releases as they came out.
I basically came to the same conclusion then as you have now and I only dabbled slightly and backed off.
I think that Ashton has all the potential to be at least as successful.

The problem is nobody is paying much of a premium on exploration bets these days, not like 18 months ago. The gold plays are much more depressed than the diamond plays. That was obvious at the PDAC.
