Patrick, there have been many samples collected over the last few years, Paravicinis are just the latest and most conclusive. I will quote Terry Turner, although I wish I were quoting Albert Trites, the geologist hired by GE more than a year before Paravicini. ---TURNER says Paravicinis findings are backed by Albert Trites, another independent geologist hired by Golden Eagle more than a year before Paravicini. TRITES determined the site held about 5 million ounces of gold. HE refused comment.--- (No doubt looking for a payday before opening his mouth, IMHO.) GE called in Paravicini after Trites came up with an estimate of an astounding 5 million proven. GE and the Bolivian Government were pleasantly surprised at Trites estimate according to previous news accounts. Mr Albert Trites was the first geologist with a world class gold deposit determination. Guido is second to the dinner table, and after more extensive sampling came up with a proven that was 28% higher than Albert Trites proven estimate. Guido is a very respected experienced geologist and is quoted in USA Today article as saying that,---Ive never been questioned like this before,--he says--I suppose these dicoveries are hard to accept even to Bolivians.--- I may have criticism for GEs late filings, but I have NO grounds to disregard Guidos proven claim. I am not a geologist, and those of you who like to play junior geologist on this tread were not on site with him during his sampling, you have not surveyed the site, as Dr. Hausen has, and so your disregard of Guidos proven is speculation on your part. Why the heck would Trites and Paravicini risk their reputations and careers for a little junior mining stock like GE. The answer, IMHO, is that they would not.
