SSO - Jim Bishop send out an email notifying all fund members of the change in plans. You were on the member email list, I got the list that I used from his email to me.

Also, CIMA posted on SI and RB that he could not go to Bolivia. The window of opportunity for him had closed. The same is true for Tom Anderson.

CIMA suggested that Steve go once Sun River made the offer to facilitate the trip for the Cima Fund, the members emailed back that he was an acceptable representative.

Two days ago I found out that Steve had decided to pay his own way to avoid any conflict of interest. That left an opening for someone to go as the fund's representative.

Bill Peterson had offered to go down at his own expense last summer when the trip was to take place. He was offered the slot and accepted.

Be very clear SSO, GE had every opportunity to facilitate this trip.
Terry Turner avoided the shareholder trip. When pressed he said the trip could take place after BD representatives were gone. As far as I can tell, they were never there and still no invitation to Bolivia was extended. Once the rainy season started in late October, no trip could take place in 1998.

Once TT found out that CIMA had some stock in Sun River and was talking to SR people, he no longer wanted to have CIMA visit GE in Bolivia. CIMA has posted an email in that regard.

Jim offered a replacement and waited for a reply, he got no reply from Terry Turner. Apparently, our shareholder trip and the PR it would bring did not appeal to T. Turner.

Sun River people were kind enough offer to facilitate the trip realizing the tremendous PR the trip would generate. PR for GE and Sun River. Most, if not all, of the Sun River people own a lot of MINE stock. They are interested in positive GE press too.

As for visiting the GE site, we weren't planning on taking samples or mining so DD from the site is not critical, imo. The GE DD will still be able to be done as I stated in my earlier post. I am looking forward to the report.

Jim has already been forwarded your request for a refund.

There are two points IMO that everyone should have straight regarding theTrip.

First, TT never said he was against a trip. He said he was against me going down because of my involvement in Sun River. I gave him the phone number of John Carperelli, a NY-based broker who wanted to go, and strongly suggested he continue on with the trip. I then passed the news on to Jim Bishop who E-mailed TT in regards to further instruction. The days passed without response. Rainy season was approaching and Jim and I decided we would go public after one week if we didn't hear from TT. The fund contributors had the right to know. It was after the news became public that Sun River offered to facilitate the Trip. We still haven't heard from TT to the best of my knowledge.

Second, Sun River will be going nowhere near GE property. Anyone who thinks Steve Weathers and Bill Peterson are easily corrupted or full of alterior motives are simply ignorant, paranoid or trying to serve their own alterior motives in debunking the Trip. I've met Steve and spoken on the phone with Bill. Both are professional and fully aware of the corporate sensitivities involved. IMO, we should be thankful to have people of their calibre representing our interests while down there.
