Hal,
There are some reasons for the discrepancy. I want to be careful how I phrase this because it is not my intention to get Maxam holders irate over my opinions.

The biggest difference that I see right now, is third party verification of COC ore. Naxos has it and Maxam doesnt. I dont know how close maxam is to actually achieving production.(meaning I dont know, not that I doubt it) At one point they said the end of the first quarter. That is not going to happen. They may have made adjustments to their timetable, I dont follow it closely enough to know the answer.

If you are going to count non COC drilling and testing, Naxos also has a large body of test that have been completed. Personally, I place little faith in anyone's claims that arent irrefutabley backed up by thirdparty. The dirts have a large history of not validating such claims. Heck, the mining industry as awhole has a pretty good rep for not backing up those kinds of claims(there are exceptions).

Anyone else can feel free to jump in.

Mark

HalNeedham,

Another significant difference between MXAM and NAXOF is number of shares outstanding. My notes show that Naxos has around 35 million shares outstanding whereas MXAM has more than 45 million.

I own both, but Naxos is better at pumping my adrenalin to record heights. That must count for something (-:
