No Easy Way of Estimating Stripping Cost

Thanx for your reply.

I think it would be difficult to estimate the cost of processing this ore. I generally use an estimate of $ 5 - 10 to move it alone (which maybe high in this case, I don't know). I also feel that there are some significant costs in processing the concentrate. Right now with the concentrate they have, this just looks like a way to lose a bunch of money. They have to find a better quality rock to process.

<<P. This company will most likely leave investors with a sour taste in their mouths, and will definitely not help the honest mining companies in todays market! >>

This is what really bugs me. Companies with honest speculative plays get hurt by speculative plays that are over valued based on there current results. If POM can find some rock worth $ 30 - 50, then it maybe worth considering. Right now, take the money and run.

Why waste your time on this thread?
It is beyond me why people that are negative on a particular
stock waste their time hanging around on a that stock's thread,
bad-mouthing the stock. Why waste your time? Move on to a thread
for a stock that your are positive about, and have invested in.

Some of your comments are really outtasight, like:
<<A newsletter with a mailing list of a MILLION people.>>
Think of the cost of mailing to list of a MILLION people-
you are off by an order of magnitude! NO newsletter writer
mails to a list that large - this isn't Publisher's
Clearing House, ya know.
<<It is awful easy to make money in the market nowadays!>>
Yah, sure! Tell that to the millions of investors in
in Canadian resource stocks like POM over the last
couple of years.
