GEG.v: A friend of mine got those $0.16 shares, about what Rob McEwen paid a year ago before the 007 zone was discovered. I should hope that you wouldn't actually confuse this with a "safe investment" like a CD or bank account, but anyone with at least a rudimentry knowledge of geology should understand that these initial discoveries of paleoplacer deposits are likely just the tip of the iceberg, as placer deposits and paleoplacer deposits follow the simple physical principals of erosion and deposition....and these initial nugget deposits being uncovered can likely be followed downstream to more uniform fine grained distal deposits.
Congratulations on your short-term prediction, but I think us longs have good company with the company of successful mineral geologists in management and investors like Rob on board.
