Gold/Mining/Energy : Naxos Resources (NAXOF) -- Ignore unavailable to you. Want to Upgrade?

Mr. Van Hummel;

<<Not wanting to contribute to clutter the scene any further I have
refrained from posting anything that would contribute to an idle, polemical
discussion about nothing.

And, sir, you have done an outstanding job by reminding us why we all so
frequently tune in here. Thank you sir, for the single best analysis I have
seen on this thread.

For one, I totally agree with your view of Naxos' situation. I have every
reason to believe that the beleaguered Sid Kemp, and the other persons shaping
our destiny, also agree with you both in principle and plan.

A huge event in the history of this company has transpired in the last two
weeks and the now shock wave has been felt here. I'll not varnish over the
truth, milk has been spilt and people are crying over it. What's past is
past and the only people who could possibly gain from any dwelling on it
will be lawyers. And I hope that never happens.

Right now we have too much of a future to consider, IMO. I have been assured,
and I believe, that Sid Kemp is working hard for us and is fully conscious
of his transition role. The most difficult part of recent events was that
first big step, when, once taken, reversal of course becomes impossible.

Mr. Van Hummel has done us all a tremendous service by outlining for us the
clearest exposition of the current state of affairs and the logical direction
of our immediate efforts. Let's have more postings like his so that I can
post less of my odes to the obvious here.

Stressful times can produce outstanding efforts and I clearly have been seeing
that lately. My thanks to you all.

Jerard P

To All,
If conventional methods would produce 0.148 oz/ton and the J/L method would produce say 2.5 oz/ton,is it possible to first use the conventional method to get the easy gold, then use the J/L method on the same dirt to recover the remaining 2.352 oz/ton ?
It seems to me that 2.352 times the current gold price,minus the $100 per ton would be profitable.The cost of bringing the dirt to the process has already been absorbed profitably through the conventional method.
I'm new to this and trying to understand it. If this is a stupid question just say so and I'll crawl back under my rock. Thanx TC
