With higher metals I think MAENF is a great choice, I was particularly intrigued by the chance for some cheap Cuban metal, and that is just the sort of project they need too. I jumped in because it traded close to book, and I wanted to have some metal in my portfolio. Truthfully, I do not understand very well the companies I own, and I generally regard trading or investing as gambling--and I certainly have had fun this year. But I promised myself that I would try and stick to some rules, and although jumping in and out with that 1/8th loss on 4k shares was a bit lame, I guess it comes down to wanting to have shares of something else more. I took enough beating, time to move on. With higher metals (even if gold stays low maybe copper will have a run?) and a little time you will probably do better than me--(I'm just flitting between mainly biotechs--yikes!) Anyway, good luck to anybody who is still on the thread, you probably took worse beatings than me in this and I certainly hope your patience is rewarded. Bye!

B--We may be there with the price going sub-buck. Maybe it will hit 50 cents?

Hello thread, anyone still hold/watch Miramar? I realize production at the Con mine is still halted, but maybe that is a blessing considering the cost to mine it is rather high. But with 90 million in cash, no debt, and 60 million shares, this one looks like a buy and hold. I thought the company made a very deft move by purchasing and retiring their convertible debentures at a 33% discount. In effect, they are buying their own shares. Any current news or rumors? They should put that 90 million to work, while good properties are a steal. Hugh
