Hi, For your information ...my spin as you put it comes not from a desire to see MAXAM or anyone else fail....My concern is based on investigative approach into they issues I see presented on the MAXAM WEB....It doesn't take much for a person to pick up the phone and call and seek information on issues wherein you plan to invest money....If someone says we have 500 million dollars in proven assets and another 100 million in probable in addition to publishing data on values they have come up with on assays....These items are simple to check out....History of the area, Geology, previous mining claims, ore production records, current mining operations...others include type of gold, recovery methods , strip ratios and still many others.. I may be stupid to believe I can convince someone that they should check out these high values and ore estimates...Didn't Bre-x sort of peak your interest?...No offense you have to be a little of what you said I am to invest and support a venture wherein nothing is happening...and everything that does arouses everybodys concerns as to when is something going to come off right... I've read your posts...you also must love to ride the waves on these DD's and play your money accordingly..You can say all you like, bottom line is that anyone who is into mining , even if it was a sand and gravel operation, would dodge you guys like the devil....MAXAM may well be on its way to millions but guys like you and a few more arn't going to be the one that gets them there...If you wern't so bullhead and used some common sense along the way you wouldn't have people like myself, and some others, trying to say pack your parachute before you step off into something you know nothing about. Do your self a favor..check back into everything that has been published.. Can you come up with a positive move..or many steps backward....I don't have to rag on MAXAM all DD's who start out without having their act together always take it in the shorts....Platinum in the desert..if you believe it ...then go find a way to prove it yourself...Go to the Peoria 7 mine....grap 40 lb sample of dirt from the best area possible...send 8 or 10 ounces each of material to ten or 15 labs all over the country.....you do that and I'll bet you never post again...Hell , you might even prove to MAXAM that you have something there to rave about.. Good luck, wl
