George, do you think that MGJ is worth buying on the potential of Victoria Island?

I know they have other interesting properties but this is the one that interests me at this time.

Is the fact that DeBeers is involved enough to keep this play buried?

Hi George.

Just thought I drop a note about Canabrava. CNB on the VSE.
I don't know whats up but the stock has gone up from $0.60 to $0.90 in a couple of days. Lots of hype on right now. Check out the Paramount (PVF)and CNB threads for more info.
They are talking about a diamond province the size of Newfoundland extending from Wawa Ontario all the way into the USA (Arkansas. CNB has been quietly staking for the last several months, along with their joint partner PVF.

I would appreciate anybodys expert opinion on what is happening or correct any mistakes.

Thanks

Dave

George and others,

teevee has opined that Aber will be SOL if and when WSP proves up tens of millions of tonnes of kimberlite with high end diamonds in it. I would think there are some figures out there about the number of diamonds produced and bought each year in various categories of stones. Does anybody have those figures? Anyone care to analyze whether one big find of high end stones like WSP's possible find (still need confirmation, don't we?) could put Aber and RTZ out of business? For that matter, what would multiple finds in the world do to the economics of the diamond biz? I guess we're talking the high end of the biz here, although Snap would, I imagine, have some small and mediocre stones as well as great ones.

Would DeBeers just buy everything up at discounted price to preserve the monopoly? Or would Aber/RTZ market on their own?

Talk amongst yourselves!

THE BALLAD OF JED CLAMPETT AND GEORGE J. TROMP

Listen to my story 'bout a man named Tromp
An expert on ice though some IR calls him "chump"
Long time ago he was lookin' at the Spear,
When things totaled up and he said, "There's something here!"
Diamonds that is, carat stew, Northwest T...

His kin folk said, "Don't explain it on SI,
"Some jerks on that thread are such turds I wish they'd die"
But George said, "You're right, but I think I should be read,"
So he upped and he started the Trump 12 diamond thread

He's been right on the counts and the caustic fusion tests,
He's never been wrong and his theories are the best,
Bob Bishop's all wet and some claim he's on the take,
But George J. Tromp, he's the one who knows the Lake,
Snap that is,
Fancy pinks,
Bucks per tonne,
Y'all buy some stock, y'hear?
