SAG, <<beginning of Mike McKay's post it say's the answer to your question>> Do you know how many times I have read that report? Why can't anybody just give me a simple answer if it's so clear where the assayed ore came. FWIW, Dennis doesn't owe me an answer because I'm either a nice guy or a bastard, but rather because I'm a shareholder just like you. Have you ever consider that I may have more investment at risk in Global than you? Being long doesn't mean that I have to blindly follow the companies nonsense and shut-up just for a long's appearance. I'm me and you're you, neither of us moves this stock, only the company's performance. Now instead of chewing me out, do you know the answer to my question?

san antonio group, I agree Mike McKay's post answers Richard's question. To me, the report says that the results came from the following places: Hassayampa ore pile, Oro Grande mine, Weaver Creek. To me, the method and procedures used were: resin in pulp, chemical and fire ores were pre-treated, fired in a furnace with fluxes and a collector and subsequently electrowinned. Identify of the test numbers to ore location and methods are clearly not given, but to me it looks like all locations have precious metals that can be extrated using current techniques. I arrived at this conclusion from the following parts of the report. ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Over the past few years the company has concentrated its efforts on the Hassayampa ore pile. The Fischer Report for INCO encourages development of the Oro Grande mine as well as Weaver Creek. In order to provide a more balanced approach, testing and evaluations have been extended to include the Weaver Creek and Oro Grande ores. The economics of resin in pulp requires a detailed evaluation. It was decided to test a total of 10 different ores. Different techniques were used to attempt to determine how they affected recovery. We recovered precious metals from all of the ores. Although the results of our analyses indicated very high variability in the rate of recovery, it did provide guidance as to which ores showed the greatest promise and confirmed our chemical and fire assay results. EVALUATION OF CONCENTRATOR A total of 8 different ores were sent to a third party for concentration. The methods used are standard for placer ores. Complete results should be available by the end of March. PRESENT SITUATION The ores in the following chart were pre-treated, fired in a furnace with fluxes and a collector and subsequently electrowinned. The results listed above are from various ores, ore pre-treatments and furnace practices. FUTURE PLANS 4. Determine which ore(s) we should concentrate on - decision by March 16, 1999. +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Doug
