One of the greatest hopes I have for the internet is that it continues to allow the average person the access to corporate "secrets". It has been historically advantageous to know stuff that others don't and has been used as leverage to increase incomes beyond what I believe is reasonable.

These "secrets" are frequently kept by evolving a language that hides certain simple facts that when generally understood reduces the value of those that have attempted to keep it hidden.

As an example of such a language one only has to look at the mining industry. It has taken me considerable time and effort just to begin to understand the various reports that mining companies put out. Then as is the case with MINE, they publish statistics that use an even more obscure language that I personally have never seen.

What is m3 etc., and what is your interpretation of why MINE is using this infrequently used "secret" language?

TIA, Jon

Claude, have you read the Edgar filing dated Dec. 31, 1997 from beginning to end?
