My premise...is that Winspear has consistently matched or exceeded the amount of information provided by the Diavik Diamond Project at every level of exploration. Well that is fine if Winspear was sitting on multiple pipe emplacements, showing sufficient tonnage to warrant skipping what is normally required with reporting Juniors, that being timely delivery of material news. You can twist the events as you wish, but the fact remains, economic pipes dont show large stones early, most large stones reveal themselves after substantial tonnage has been extracted. I am rather surprised that they found the visible diamond in the core, however the world class grades show the economics of the deposit. I find it surprising as well that one which claims so much talent is trying to compare reporting news between companies. Winspear delivered a 200 ton (mini-bulk sample) restrictive and contained with a small area from a dyke where proven tonnage is yet being drilled and not backed by a feasibility study. What more needs to be said. They promoted the stock on the 301US per carat values, they purposefully withheld the complete valuation breakdowns as a carrot in front of investors, then when scrutinized more closely by the Canadian Diamond analysts expeditiously reported the valuation breakdowns by necessity not by the goodness of their dear hearts. No the news didnt blind side me, I bought the stock based on the fundamnetals at much lower prices, evidenced by your timely posting of #6109. I am not on the defense here pal, I am not the one daily musing about Winspears potential. nor am I advising investors to buy stock which has been fully valued, I leave that to the people that failed to justify their investment, and deem it essential to buy at higher prices, and to daily remind themselves and others of the merits of their decisions. For what it is worth, Aber did release incremental grades during their bulk samples. Lets see if Winspear does as well. Regards George
