Daniel you are getting awfully lazy. The links you sent me on Madagasgar mining PROVE my position... there are no gem mining operations of any significance in Madagasgar. Did you even go into the site? Look here (this is from the home page link you sent): mbendi.co.za See that Madasgar only produces minerals. (geodes, quartz and a little amythest is not precious or significant) Good luck boy, but you are counting on luck. Why you hyping this anyway? You could be hurting a lot of people who believe you... and when this tanks you won't be doing anything for yourself either.
