Mark, thanks. The following is speculation from Jay Taylor's weekly update:

INTERNATIONAL PRECIOUS METALS

On Thursday, INTERNATIONAL PRECIOUS METALS along with its attorneys and a metallurgist from a registered Arizona lab met with officials at the NASDAQ to try to convince NASDAQ not to delist its shares from trading on the NASDAQ Small Caps listing. A Company spokesman told me that the meeting went very well. The scientist reportedly explained to the NASDAQ officials that fire assays do sometimes fail to reveal the existence of gold under certain circumstances. I do believe that IPM made its case well, but non-the less, I will be very pleasantly surprised if IPM is not delisted any way. From what I understand, the NASDAQ appeal process is very much like that faced by Tanya Faye Tucker, when she appealed her death penalty. Or perhaps, the old fashioned Chinese system of justice is a more appropriate comparison. To prove your innocence of a crime in China, you are required to prove your ability to swim with heavy weights tied to each extremity.

I am fully prepared to see IPM trade on the Bulletin Board. What I think is likely to happen is that this company will be faced with much greater dilution that they would have had if it were not for Desert Fox and now the unnecessary and unexplained delisting crimes of NASDAQ. Still, I think evidence points to the potential for the Black Rock deposit to be such a significant ore body, that purchase of these shares at a current price of under $0.50 is a super attractive speculation.
