Congradulations to WSP recent success for those investors who held on through all down times. I do however have some questions that some of you may be able to respond to...
1. It is industry standard to exclude any "coloured or fancy" diamonds in the valuation of stones. WSP acknowledges this fact but they refuse to comment on whether or or not they used any coloured stones in their package.
2. What was the average value recieved for the top 5 stones? If one stone (ie: the 10+ carat stones) was of exceptional value then it could dramatically scew the average value of over $300.00+ per ton. In such a small sample of diamonds (it is generally not industry standard to try and valuate such a small package of diamonds) this could be a serious concern.
This is information that WSP has but they would not release it. I would like nothing better than WSP find a mine (as I'm heavily invested in Canadian diamond play) but I have serious concerns about managements credibility
