Hey, pal .. you just helped me get all my GeneMax posts back and accessable. Thanks. Now the true record is there .. not what you assassins try to tell everyone. FUH KNEE !!!!! LOL. You have made my day. I also note that you stalk me because you appear to have filed my stuff. This means you fear me because I know your game of illegally short selling O T C issues and you don't want me on any of these boards. You try to paint me as a tout. This is 1000 % untrue. I don't tout anything. If I like a company I talk about it. See 'ya in the movies Chumley !!!
Do you watch for me scion ? Harrassment, I would say. And what are you doing here ? You know nothing about anything. I see you are back polluting the R B GeneMax board again after being suspended. Your new alias is not working. So now you bring Janice over there too and resurrect all the Dobry garbage that is irrelevant to that board. You are just a trouble maker. And despicable to boot. As for SVL disclosure, I got in on the first financings around the 13 cent level and this is a very first class deal with reputable people. Besides being ignorant of these types of mining deals, your big trouble is you have associated with rotten people for so long now you fail to recognize excellent professional people. Get off this board. Or contribute in a civil manner if you can. Do you even know where Honduras is ? I have a better idea .. get your buddies and illegally short the bee geezus out of this one. LOL.

Pure Silver Exploration Company
Dear Member,
Significant discovery at El Ocote potentially doubles silver resource
Company bound for producer status
Well-financed with $1.4 million in the treasury
"Pure" silver play with experienced management team
With a significant new discovery under its belt at Honduras' El Ocote concession, Vancouver-based SilverCrest Mines is well on its way to achieving its goal of becoming a high grade silver mine operator throughout North, Central and South America.
At the feasibility phase, El Ocote is one of four 100%-owned concessions in SilverCrest's Honduran portfolio, the other three being Opoteca, La Pochota, and the "grass roots" Arena Blanca area.
Completion last summer of a C$700,000 private placement through Cannacord Capital, combined with a non-brokered private placement for C$250,000, gives SilverCrest the working capital necessary to continue its exploration activities on all four properties over the next 12 months.
"We've also had some warrants exercised," said SilverCrest President Scott Drever. "Our treasury has about $1.4 million now, and that's certainly sufficient for the first set of drilling on the Honduran projects."
As a pure silver play, management is expecting SilverCrest to benefit from a small pool of competitors in financial markets.
"There are very few pure silver companies," Drever Explained. "And there are silver bugs as well as gold bugs in the market. The silver bugs are just as enthusiastic as the gold bugs."
The 384-hectare El Ocote concession is about 220 kilometers west of Tegucigalpa and 20 kilometers east of the city of Ocotepeque in the Department of Ocotepeque.
Initial estimates for El Ocote Breccia Pipe show indicated and inferred silver resources at 16.2 million ounces – but that was before the newly discovered "Rosita Extension," which the company believes has the potential to double or even triple the El Ocote resource.
Initially, aerial photographs showed the the "Rosita Structure" with a strike length of nearly 1000 metres, about half of which had been confirmed on the ground. At least 150 metres carries significant silver values over combined widths of at least 60 metres ("Rosita Extension").
In October, the company announced that additional field work has confirmed that the newly discovered Rosita Extension extends both to the southwest and northeast, beyond the previously assumed boundaries of the El Ocote Breccia Pipe. The northeast extension was identified in one previous drill hole that reported silver values of 180 gpt Ag and over 20 metres.
"We need to get in there with a portable rig," Drever said. "The first phase will be six or eight holes, and that would give us a good idea of what the significance of that Rosita Extension is. The main Breccia pipe also needs five or six holes to bring the categories up a bit and allows to get going on the feasibility study."
SilverCrest's Opoteca concession is an advanced stage exploration project with a 13 million ounce resource @125 gpt/3.64 opt silver, amenable to open pit mining, and with resource potential of more than 20 million ounces.
The 600-hectare Opoteca concession is in west-central Honduras about 100 kilometers north of Tegucigalpa and 15 kilometers north of the city of Comayagua in the Department of Comayagua.
Indicated Resources are estimated at 1.3 million tonnes grading 123 g/t silver and 0.17 g/t gold containing 5.6 million equivalent ounces of silver based on a 30 g/t silver cut off grade. Inferred Resources are estimated at 1.7 million tonnes grading 126 g/t silver and 0.10 g/t gold, containing 7.4 million equivalent ounces of silver.
"We've laid out six holes on this," Drever said. "And we'll probably drill four or five wildcats in the other areas."
The company's 400-hectare La Pochota concession, 120 kilometers southwest of Tegucigalpa, has bonanza silver grades of 332 to 514 gpt silver with significant gold credits, confirmation of grades by independent QP.
The deposit is an epithermal vein system with existing and accessible underground workings. Approximately 250 metres of exploration drifting exists with only minor stoping. Various previous operators and engineering reports show the vein ranging between 1 to 4 metres in width.
The vein appears to strike along a dip slope for 600 metres and is measured down dip for 125 metres. Reported grades vary from 332 g/t to 514 g/t silver with significant gold credits. A drill program will be required to test the strike and depth extensions as well as test several parallel structures.
SilverCrest's 200 hectare Arena Blanca concession is an early stage exploration project with high grade potential. Arena Blanca, on cleared land at elevations of 200 to 1000 meters, is in the west-central part of Honduras approximately 200 kilometers north of Tegucigalpa.
The mineralization occurs in a quartzvein/shear zone hosted in granodiorite. The 5 to 6 meter wide quartz vein occurs on a dip slope and has been accessed by an adit and sampled up dip where the zone outcrops on a hilltop.
Sample results from a United Nations report yielded grades ranging from 1,945 g/t to 7,600 g/t silver. A modest first phase drill program will test for mineralized continuity between the adit access and the hilltop.
But, Drever said, this project could move up the priority list "simply because of the grades we've seen there. It's still grass roots, but it's so intriguing."
Drilling results I hear might come early next week.
I coulda already it needs to shoulda now.
BCSC scores appeal court win against offshore promoter
2003-05-01 14:37 ET - Street Wire
by Brent Mudry
The British Columbia Securities Commission has scored a double win against controversial former North Vancouver promoter Cameron Willard McEwen, targeted over a 1999 offshore Arizona gold mine promotion. In a unanimous 47-page decision released Wednesday, the Court of Appeal for British Columbia has rejected both appeals of Mr. McEwen, who is also currently in hot water with Australian authorities in a related case.
In a decision underlining the BCSC's broad powers, the appeal court upheld lower court judges' findings affirming the BCSC's investigation and enforcement powers, denying Mr. McEwen's bid to cross-examine former commission senior investigator Linda Murray and denying the promoter's bid to extend solicitor-client privilege beyond communications relating just to the provision of legal advice.
The decision of Madam Justice Mary Newbury, supported by Madam Justice Jo-Ann Prowse and Madam Justice Carol Mahood Huddart, comes six weeks after a March 17 hearing. The decision is a win for commission counsel Kristine McTaggart and a loss for defence counsel Douglas Hewson Christie of Victoria. Intervenor Mark Underhill made submissions on behalf of the Law Society of B.C., which is concerned about searches on lawyers' offices. Vancouver lawyer Bryce Dodds Stewart, who served as B.C. counsel for Mr. McEwen's Fortress International promotion, was a party to the lower court actions but not the appeal court round.
Mr. McEwen is the main BCSC target, and lawyer Mr. Stewart had the misfortune of being drawn into the lower court battles due to assertions of privilege. Even if Mr. Stewart was happy to hand over everything sought by the BCSC, he could not, as only clients, not lawyers, can waive privilege.
The B.C. court decision is the latest bad news for Mr. McEwen, who was temporarily barred from leaving mainland Australia on March 6, ordered to surrender his passport and barred from moving the assets of Fortress International and Great American Gold Ltd., the main companies in his unregistered offshore gold-mine investment scheme. The investigation by the Australian Securities & Investments Commission was assisted by the BCSC, the Arizona Corporation Commission and the Arizona Department of Mines.
The continuing ASIC investigation centres on the alleged promotion of financial services in that country by Mr. McEwen, Fortress and Great American. Mr. McEwen, a Canadian national formerly in North Vancouver, moved to Arizona before recently relocating to Australia.
Mr. McEwen's offshore Arizona gold mine promotion involves three Bahamian-registered companies: Fortress International and Great American Gold, both operating from a postbox in Nassau, and Corporate Express Club Inc., with a head office in the Vancouver suburb of Surrey, and an affiliate called Offshore Knowledge Network. The BCSC launched a formal probe under a Dec. 7, 1999, investigation order naming these companies and individuals Mr. McEwen, Patrick Thomas Stojak, also of North Vancouver, John Thomas McCarthy of Surrey and Lynn Ilene Sorsdahl of Kelowna, B.C., as investigation targets.
In a sworn affidavit, Mr. McEwen claims he is merely an "authorized agent" of Fortress, and not a principal corporate officer. Mr. McEwen's Fortress describes its "Arizona Mining Project" in an undated one-page information release and a three-page "Executive Sunmary (sic)." "It has proven and economically viable reserves of gold; the project has enormous revenue potential ... Product will be refined offshore. Revenues will accumulate and be disbursed offshore. The project will be privately owned and managed offshore," states the release.
According to the profile, Gold Gulch Mining Ltd. subleased 8,200 acres of exploration claims from AU Consolidated Inc., another Arizona company, in the Gold Gulch area in Cochise county, Arizona, about 70 miles east of Tucson. (Mr. McEwen, initially served at a North Vancouver residence, claims he lives in Willcox, Ariz., 10 miles from the property, aside from his extensive travels on company business.)
Great American Gold purportedly acquired Gold Gulch Mining and retained Fortress as its financial manager and agent. Fortress describes itself as a Bahamian company which "specializes in offshore corporate management services, offshore investment banking and corporate financing." If Fortess is to believed, the Gold Gulch project has a net present value of $230-million, based on proven reserves of 1.22 million ounces of gold, probable reserves of 5.31 million ounces, impressively low extraction costs of $75 an ounce, and an assumed gold price of $250 an ounce. (All figures are in U.S. dollars.)
This is just the start. These figures, purportedly prepared by mining engineer James Coates, cover just 640 acres. "Assuming the values extend over the entire 8,200 acres of claims held by GAG, the net present value of the reserves is approximately USD$4,000,000,000," states Fortress. With probable reserves four times higher, the project could supposedly be worth about $16-billion.
Much of the Fortress records have been effectively sealed in court for several years pending the outcome of various court actions, so the BCSC has been stymied in its investigation. The appeal court ruling should help the BCSC jump-start its probe.
The focus of the first appeal is the BCSC's investigations and enforcement powers, given under the Securities Act, particularly the commission's ability to summon witnesses and compel the production of witnesses. The focus of the second appeal is to protect solicitor-client privilege, but make sure it is not abused or extended beyond its proper limits.
Much of the first appeal centred on Mr. McEwen's bid to turn the tables on the BCSC, and cross-examine Ms. Murray, the lead investigator, who has since left the commission for a new challenge, compliance at Wolverton Securities.
"In my view, no basis has been shown for the Court to exercise its discretion to allow Ms. Murray to be questioned on her affidavit at this stage," states Judge Newbury. "Cross-examination would delay the hearing of the petition for what appears to be a fishing expedition, frustrate the purposes of the Act, and impose an unnecessary layer of process on what the Supreme Court of Canada has said is intended to be an expeditious and cost-effective regulatory scheme."
The appeal court rejected all of Mr. Christie's arguments on this point.
"There is simply no basis in law for the notion that a person in CWM's position has a constitutionally-protected right to cross-examine an investigator on an affidavit filed in support of a petition in the circumstances of this case. If it were otherwise, what is intended to be a time- and cost-efficient administrative function would become an 'investigation of the investigators,' beset with all the formalities and delays of a criminal trial," states Judge Newbury.
The second appeal, regarding solicitor-client privilege, will likely be closely watched by lawyers and clients across Canada, as it reinforces the limits on claims of such privilege in searches of lawyers' offices. Other notable recent decisions include the Lavallee decision of the Supreme Court of Canada on Dec. 13 and the Festing decision in the Court of Appeal for B.C. on Feb. 25.
The McEwen case was concerning enough that the Law Society of B.C. intervened. Counsel Mr. Underhill noted his submissions were made without prejudice, as the law society sometime in the future may question the constitutionality of Section 148 of the Securities Act, as it pertains to solicitor-client privilege. Mr. Underhill requested the appeal court issue directions to apply in future cases to demands and summonses issued under the Securities Act to lawyers and their agents and employees, but the court ruled this would now be just an academic exercise in the McEwen case.
Mr. McEwen claimed privilege on virtually every document or communication handled by lawyer Mr. Stewart.
"I considered all my communications as (Fortress) agent, and all the documents I have reviewed as being privileged because they were all communicated subject to and for the purpose of obtaining his legal advice on each and every document or instruction should he be of the opinion that any were illegal or even questionable," stated the promoter in an Oct. 23, 2001, affidavit. "I am shocked that these confidential documents are now being reviewed by the court to breach my solicitor/client privilege and secrecy."
Defence lawyer Mr. Christie argued that when a solictor and client anticipate and expect their business will be "secret and private," a court of law cannot or should not assert what he called "inquisitorial powers over solicitors."
The appeal court, however, noted that Mr. Christie tried to blend the concepts of solicitor-client privilege and confidentiality. "There is no doubt that lawyers are under an obligation to keep confidential all documents and other communications made to them by their clients, but not all such communications are subject to solicitor-client privilege and a claim of privilege does not convert non-privileged documents into privileged documents," states Judge Newbury.
The appeal court noted the lower court judge set out four criteria for claiming privilege in the McEwen case, which were not challenged by defence lawyer Mr. Christie. The critical point was the final one, "the communication must be directly related to the seeking, formulating or giving of legal advice." Mr. McEwen and Fortress lawyer Mr. Stewart had unsuccessfully asserted a blanket privilege in the lower court.
In the lower court, Mr. McEwen and his counsel unsuccessfully contended that privilege applied broadly to even such documents as banking records or communications between a lawyer and third parties, such as investors and others, "because of the client's expectation that (lawyer) BDS would advise continuously on the legality of all aspects of all transactions."
The appeal court dismissed this appeal.
The message is clear to all securities investigation targets who try to deter pesky investigators by asserting privilege on everything by asserting solicitor-client privilege: You can run, but you can't hide.
Mr. McEwen, of course, remains presumed innocent of any wrongdoing until the BCSC or the ASIC prove otherwise.

I got the distinct impression
talking with Scott Drever that he and the management team
are "sitting on pins and needles" waiting for the paperwork

They're obviously anxious to be about the business

This is from earlier today.
At last some news.

Another good article on silver.
Coffee, Tea or Silver?
by Charleston Voice
With the price of silver (POS) poised to punch through its multi-year suppression price of somewhere around $5.50 an ounce, it should be giving some old timers a pause for reflection on ages past.
If you've been around long enough many of you can readily recall when silver heirlooms, sterling flatware, silver coins and dollars were lugged in to local coin shops by the bucket load for melting and turn-in for US dollar banknotes. I can't remember precisely when the great meltdown began, what the POS was, but it was frantic and stressful to be on the buying end as I was, being a "vest pocket" coin dealer at the time. I think the big rush lasted about 5-6 weeks, say as the POS crossed over $35, peaked at $50, and worked its way back down. Over this parabola, people dumped. The year was 1980.
Remember at the time it was speculated that silver coins would begin circulating again? You'd be able to get a gallon of gas for a silver dime, its time proven real price? Well, we never got to that point obviously, although a couple of gas stations in my community did make such offers; probably more of a marketing ploy than a substantive business decision.
Uncirculated silver quarters dated 1964 have now become eagerly sought after by coin collectors and investors; the reason being that during the great meltdown, 1964 coins were the most plentiful and were the first surrendered to the melting pot. I mean, really, those '64 Kennedy halves and Washington quarters were everywhere - a big nuisance, dump 'em!
Anyway, that brief inflationary burst and the rise of precious metals gives me pause to wonder what will happen this time?
Back then in 1980, Americans at least had a greater understanding of what constituted sound money, not many of course; but far more people understood what was happening than I feel will grasp a similar situation today. The US Treasury still had some silver, and if you believe Treasury accounting, they had some gold, too. Not so today. It would have been a wonderful opportunity for the US Government to re-introduce precious metals as a circulating medium, and return the country to a sound and honest economic footing. But, the pull of spending and printing money in unlimited amounts was just too great for our unprincipled congressmen. A little better than today, but still looking after their own political self-interests before that of their constituents.
Here's the picture. What we're really finding annoying today is that some supposed gold and silver "experts" are bandying about the postulate that somehow Greenspan is going to return gold to our monetary system. Give me a break! I'm not even going to dignify that theory with a rebuttal.
But, what I will do is ask you how a Wal-Mart or a McDonald's would conduct their business if silver coins, what may remain in personal hoards, began to circulate again? Would they begin posting their daily (hourly?) silver exchange rates on their marquees, or drive-thru menu boards? Watching cash register checkout clerks trying to handle a transaction with real money would be an amusing sight to behold! Watching a numb-numb clerk making change would be an even greater laughing matter. Would they offer you a Wal-Mart Script in exchange for your silver coin as you came in their store? Where would they deposit their end-of-day silver receipts? Would they have to accept one of the gold or silver backed e-monies now available? There's little likelihood that Wal-Mart or any other US jobs exporting company could do it either. They'd certainly have to be pressured competitively to change their ways, and train their people. And the way that might happen is for local American businesses to gain back some of their lost business by being able to accommodate their customers' desire for a dual money system. You begin now to see the dangers of reduced competition with the rise of slavemasters such as Wal-Mart who have crushed all competitors. Wal-Mart's business plans call for expansion into every area of consumer concern, from automobiles, to gas stations to Small-Marts, a chain of smaller convenience stores to pick up any crumbs missed by their mega stores.
In the months to come, we're going to hear again from some quarters that silver may be used in transactions again. One thing is for sure though, if entrepreneurial America is to regain a consumer competitiveness, the shrewd American small businessman will begin now to offer his customers a choice - silver or paper.
And, for right now, Wal-Mart can't handle that!

Interesting Article.
To: Central Banks, Secretariats, Governors, Concerned Others
Associates,
A short time ago we urged you to begin accumulating silver bullion as an alternative to replace any gold that you have loaned out or leased and may not be repaid. We advised you to use existing US dollar bank reserves for these silver purchases, NOT to sell or swap any of your gold stock! The gold that you may have been able to hold onto should remain so, in your central bank treasury. Silver accumulations can be used - should you wish to do so - to re-acquire your lost gold at some point in the future when the equilibrium is more favorable for silver.
Well, it seems that narrow window of silver purchase opportunity may be closing as silver showed dramatic price action this past Friday breaking through key resistance on the US commodity exchanges. Some of you have made considerable progress in your silver acquisition programs, but your plans must be accelerated NOW, before the general public rushes to buy it out from under you. You laggards have no alternatives for delaying as the US dollar is widely expected to lose value in this coming year. And, by all means, and we can't stress it enough - PHYSICAL DELIVERY OF THE SILVER TO YOU IS MANDATED.
As always please continue to advise us of your ongoing progress and accumulation plans in this regard.
Sincerely,
- - - CBOM

(The following was written by silver analyst Theodore Butler. An insightful interview with former Dresdner Bank chief economist Dr. Kurt Richebacher precedes the Butler analysis at the website. )
http://www.investmentrarities.com/
* * * * *
An interesting drama is playing out in the expiring December silver contract on the COMEX. There are signs that the shorts in the contract are having some difficulty in delivering against their commitments, as required. As of December 16, there were still about 1,000 contracts (5 million ounces) yet to be delivered with the last trading day being the 27th. Although this is not a huge amount of silver, it is more than is normally open at this late date. The chances are small that this current delivery will spiral out of control, igniting the silver price explosion. However, the odds are great that it will happen just like this at some point in the future. At the very least, it appears that the shorts are stressed in coming up with real silver to deliver.
It’s possible that gold could get ahead of silver for awhile. It’s important to remember that they are two different commodities. If you hear anyone crowing that gold is better than silver or will do better over the long term, make a mental note. I suspect the same people will be taking credit when silver rises.
I’m not saying there’s anything wrong with gold. I’m saying that silver is better. I expect silver to make a much greater percentage gain than gold. The demand for gold recently has been primarily from paper transactions. We know that industrial demand for silver has been strong and for most of the year investment buying of physical silver was significant. It’s not going to be long before silver outdistances gold.
Frankly, I think we could have a brief sell off in silver here (unless the COMEX can’t deliver the five million ounces). Once this brief correction is out of the way, we should get a strong rally. This could easily turn into the big move. Any price movement lower is going to be mere pennies compared to dollars on the upside.
The coming bull market in silver will attract a lot of mention from the public. Some people will jump in at higher levels. Those who get in now won’t have to pay those higher prices. Today’s buyers are acting on information that only a few people possess. Most of the investing public doesn’t have a clue about silver. There may be 50 million or more investors in America. About one in two thousand is privy to the known facts about silver. That’s because you can’t find the real story about silver in newspapers or magazines. It’s not on TV or on any financial shows. This means you have this information long before the crowd. That’s a huge advantage.
The epic distortion of the basic supply and demand of a major world commodity has created the opportunity of a lifetime. As you are aware, I’ve gone on record as predicting silver could hit much higher prices over the medium term. I mentioned $50 an ounce only because analysts are expected to mention a number to summarize their research. In reality, on a long-term basis, those price projections do not reflect just how bullish I am.
Frankly, I can’t see anything that can prevent a price rise. This market is structured to explode. The precipitating event is unimportant. I could probably list 20 possibilities, but it doesn’t matter what the event is. What matters is that the market has to eventually jump dramatically. There is a verified long-term physical deficit. We have the largest short position in history, and we have supply coming from an unsustainable source – silver leasing. We have the lowest prices in history and the strongest demand and that’s on top of the lowest world inventory.
Please understand and envision that 50 centuries’ worth of accumulated silver production is gone forever. The fact that such big hoards of silver have disappeared means we are fast approaching a time when no more silver is available to industry at today’s low prices. There won’t be enough supply to go around.
There will be great pressure by the silver industrial consumers to get silver. Individuals may not need silver to survive, but industrial users do. They will do everything in their power to assure a steady supply of silver.
Will you ever again see the cheapest historical price for a commodity at the time of its greatest historical demand? Will you ever again see anything in chronic short supply selling at a grossly undervalued price level? Will you ever see such low risk? Never! In my opinion you will never see a market so convoluted or undervalued ever again.
4 months I believe. Are you a Canadian player ?? All these juniors go the same way. No one worries much about dilution in start-ups like this one. There aren't many retail investors in here yet. It's what we call 'pretty clean'.
It appears that that walking around money comes at a high cost in the shape of shareholder dilution,wouldn't you say? Possible 7 mil shares. Whats the hold period on the special wts?
Here's kind of a central mining thread - #board-622 ... attempt at it anyway ... feel free to spam your board over there a little, to show people it's been started ... i mentioned it already ... svl is on my watchlist, i'm curious to see at what levels they get financed, and what deals they can come up with .... cheers
Because they are private investors .. not insiders. This is a normal financing to provide what is called 'walking around money' to get things all lined up for a larger financing to get the funds required to do major field work.
Why are the other 1.395 mil special wt placees not listed?.......hmmmmmmmmm.
