Claude, IMO this little company has been pretty successful so far with their model. No debt, self funded, not bad in an uncertain metal resource world. After Bre-x, DELGF, and especially the politics and problems with IPM, funding for a drill program is not that easy IMO. If they get checks that create profit (profit = sales - costs), they can leverage increased production. At some time this company could be evaluated just based on earnings, not reserves. That is stock valuation based on P/E or cash flow. That would be no different than investing in other companies that create products, they can make money or they can't. I know this isn't your concept of a mining company, but it's a model that has possibilities. I think we shall soon see Maxam adopting an equivalent model.

Think of bottom line $$$. No longer is MG an exploration company. They are a dime a thousand. It is now a production company. Producting NOW! It's the way these desert dirts should have gone all along.

MG will deliver the gold to the banks as production is geared up. I expect also that MG will be processing many, many types of HIGH grade ore coming from many sources. :-) CASH FLOW!! PROFITABLE!!

Refreshing to see you are not advocating SFA...as the one and only answer.

thousands bucks will not help justify a market cap of US$20-$30 millions. < I don't think you are getting the point. It won't be a few checks here and there. It will be one a week and they will get bigger and bigger as they increase production.

>Why ? Is there a reason the company would not drill this to prove to the banks they have the gold< Read the last presidents Letter. They don't feel they have to waste the money on a drill program. Stock price will be based on recovery and cash flow.
