GUMP! SKY HALTED Best of Luck! :)
No worries woodrots thanks much
I thought I was high it might have been .5 million as in 1/2 million in jade. Maybe it could have been Urban's jade after all I really don't know, but thanks for the quick reply half to catch some ZZzzzzz's myself. Never expected a reply till morning! Thought this would go largely ignored ok see what you find thanks again.
Cheers...Rich
It always struck me as garrishly odd
....and starkly obvious who would have the money and contacts to pony up all that jade CMKX was to use for displaying their future found diamonds. Yet another indication (highly suggestive I might add) of deep pockets working anonymously from the safety and obscurity of the sidelines. Yet in concert with Urban whom though wealthy I doubt could justify such a lavish tie up of much needed capital
Does anyone recall or know where all that (I think it was $5 million worth?) jade really came from ORIGINALLY?
Thank you....Rich
johnluke I don't quite recall the percentages
So many PR's ago it is out there though 30% CMKX interest rings a bell , don't quote me please...but they are out there more importantly however you might want to brush up on their potential. KPG apparently has gold property in La Ronge North Saskatchewan UCA has a wide assortment of mineral interests gold uranium and nickel I understand are a few I'm sure UCA has more. I found this very interesting and educational on our partners and how it could pertain to CMKX.
Saskatchewan Diamond Property
In January 2000, United Carina Resources Corp. and Consolidated Pine Channel Gold Corp., jointly acquired ground in the Saskatchewan Diamond Belt, in and around the Fort a la Corne Kimberlite Field, near Prince Albert, Saskatchewan, and are exploring the potential of these properties to host diamondiferous kimberlite bodies. Additional ground (over 100,000 acres) has, since then, been acquired in this area, which contains the largest known kimberlite field in the world.
The diamond prospect properties were staked after a lengthy review of both published and unpublished historical work. They will be evaluated along with any other opportunities that become available, using newly developed exploration concepts. Airborne and ground geophysical programs have now been completed on a number of the properties.
This work included a high resolution aeromagnetic survey on nine separate blocks of ground comprising some 60,000 acres and a detailed gravity survey on the Smeaton project, which occurs north of the Fort a la Corne kimberlites and along the same northwest structural trend as the Snowden kimberlite cluster.
Evaluation of the remainder of the 225 claims contained in some 30 blocks will continue. Flying of a high resolution aeromagnetic survey has been completed over the Companies' "Diamond Lady" block of claims, which occur contiguous to the Shore Gold Inc. property, and on claims contiguous to the blocks on which De Beers, Kensington and joint venture partners have completed a 24" reverse circulation drill bulk sampling program. This evaluation process is being conducted to identify drill targets to further the Companies' exploration for diamonds in Saskatchewan.
United Carina and Pine Channel have granted an option whereby Shane Resources Ltd. can earn up to a 50% interest in four mineral claims contained within the Companies' Smeaton Diamond Properties. The interest may be earned by Shane issuing 100,000 shares and contributing an aggregate $900,000 in funding for exploration of the claims over three years. During the first year, a minimum of $250,000 must be contributed to earn a 15% interest. A further $250,000 must be contributed in the second year to earn an aggregate 30% interest and, in the final year, a further contribution of $400,000 will bring Shane's interest in the claims up to 50%. The Companies, or one of them, will act as operator during the earn-in period, and the project will be directed by a management committee comprised of a representative of each party.
The Smeaton Diamond Properties were staked on the basis of information indicating that the Saskatchewan Diamond Syndicate had intersected a 90 m section of kimberlite while drilling in 1996. From all of the information available, very little follow up work or sampling was carried out on the properties, leaving much more room for further investigation.
A gravity survey has been completed over the properties and modeling completed by the Companies' geophysicist, as well as by a major mining company, indicate that weak positive gravity response could be defining kimberlite bodies at depth. The minimal or non-magnetic signature drill targets identified by the survey were interpreted as very encouraging by the Companies' geological consultants. Within the Fort a La Corne Kimberlite Fields, gravity surveys have been utilized by the Cameco/Kensington/Monopros joint venture to identify the thicker portions of some of the larger kimberlite bodies.
A four hole drilling program comprising 713 m, was recently completed on the properties to delineate kimberlitic bodies identified from the gravity survey. The drilling was contracted to Major Midwest Drilling, utilizing "H" size drill core. All four holes, including one shallow overburden hole, were targeted largely on gravity anomalies. The three holes that cored bedrock, successfully intersected up to several metres of subaqueous fragmental and marine worked kimberlite, intercalated with fine grained sediments. Samples are currently being processed and analyzed for indicator minerals and microdiamonds. Results are pending.
In a related event, the Companies and Shane Resources Ltd. (one-third each) have acquired properties immediately west of, and adjoining, claims containing kimberlite body 122. Kimberlite 122 is one of the highest priority targets in the Fort a la Corne kimberlite field. It is owned by DeBeers/Kensington/Cameco and was chosen for a recently completed mini-bulk sampling program because of its immense size (264 acres, 108 ha) and its potential for large stones. The largest stone recovered to date from kimberlite 122 weighed in at 0.76 carats. The Companies are encouraged because historical geophysical surveys strongly suggest that portions of kimberlite 122 extend westwards onto the newly acquired ground. Furthermore, a separate mutually exclusive target, is also evident on the property.
Kensington Resources Ltd. announced that kimberlite body #122 is estimated to contain in excess of 540 million tonnes of kimberlite. It also reported the successful completion of the first part of a two part drill program, which confirmed the nature of the diamond size frequency in kimberlite body #122. The second part of their program will be to recover enough stones to allow preliminary revenue modeling to be done.
An option has been granted to First Labrador Acquisitions Inc. whereby First Labrador can earn an interest of up to 50% in mineral claims S-134454 and S-134455 by completing a $300,000 work program on the property, or by making payment of that amount. United Carina, Pine Channel, Shane Resources and First Labrador will attempt to determine to what extent kimberlite body #122 extends onto the property, and whether the property contains other kimberlites.
Ground geophysical surveys are now underway on the newly acquired properties located west of kimberlite 122, as well as on several other properties in the Fort a la Corne area.
Over seventy in-situ diamondiferous kimberlite pipes have been identified in this part of central Saskatchewan. Furthermore, numerous aeromagnetic anomalies which could be attributed to kimberlites have yet to be fully evaluated. The Companies feel that exploration in the Saskatchewan diamond belt is still at a relatively early stage and that there is an excellent potential of identifying economically viable diamond deposits in this part of Central Saskatchewan, and will continue to aggressively pursue the same.

United Carina stakes Saskatchewan claims
2004-09-28 09:48 ET - News Release
Mr. Rick Walker reports
United Carina Resources Corp. has acquired by staking three large claim blocks in the Wollaston Lake-Hatchet Lake area of Saskatchewan. The claims are situated within the Athabaska basin and total approximately 35,800 acres in area. The properties are contiguous and have been subject to previous exploration for uranium. One surface showing yielded assays ranging from 0.3 per cent U3O8 to 1.4 per cent U3O8.
Plans are under way to conduct a compilation of previous work and to undertake a surface exploration program on these properties.

....but highly suggestive to me Roger could have reached an out of court settlement particularly if he is publicly stating he is snowed under with a challenging audit . Also keep in mind other MM's have privately expressed with emphatic conviction JEFF is going down. Additionally JEFF's intransigence given ample opportunity to recant would support reaching an out of court settlement as a mutually agreed to best solution. BWTHDIK this is certainly a one of a kind play in my books :)
"NO reason anyone should have ucad shares and NO reason they should be unrestricted and there is NO reason JEFF should just suddenly, after months of compressing the ask, step away from it the day before the distribution."
As for your opinion on Certs spot on I'm completely confused what you mean!!! ;)

A mother and her young son were flying Westjet Airlines from Winnipeg to Calgary.
The son (who had been looking out the window ) turned to his mother and asked, If big dogs have baby dogs and big cats have baby cats, why don't big planes have baby planes?
The mother (who couldn't think of an answer) told her son to ask the stewardess. So the boy asked the stewardess, If big dogs have baby dogs and big cats have baby cats, why don't big planes have baby planes?
The stewardess responded, did your mother tell you to ask me? The boy sheepishly admitted that this was the case.
Well, then, tell your mother that there are no baby planes young man
because WESTJET always pulls out on time.
Ask your mother to explain that to you!
Have a good one all! :)

CMKM Diamonds, Inc. Announces Update on Carolyn Pipe and Targets Selected for Drilling on Green Lake
2004-05-27 09:30 ET - News Release
LAS VEGAS -- (Business Wire) -- May 27, 2004
CMKM Diamonds, Inc. (Pink Sheets: CMKX) is pleased to
announce that the Company has completed the first phase of drilling of
the "Carolyn Pipe" in the Fort a la Corne, Saskatchewan area. Five
holes were drilled, of which four intersected kimberlite.
Drill hole #1 intersected 428 feet of kimberlite. Drill hole #2,
north of hole #1, intersected about 246 feet of kimberlite. Drill hole
#3, east of hole #1, did not intersect any kimberlite. Drill hole #4,
west of hole #1, intersected 206 feet of kimberlite. Drill hole #5,
north of #4, hole approx. 226 feet of kimberlite, although there is a
15 foot interval of mudstone in the kimberlite, which may be a layer
of sediment laid between two episodes of kimberlitic volcanism.
Thinner layers of mudstone in the kimberlite in other holes may also
be either blocks or layers of sediment.
The kimberlite intervals from holes #1 and #2 have been split and
half of the core has been sent to an independent laboratory for
microdiamond analysis by total dissolution. The results are expected
soon and further work on the "Carolyn Pipe" will depend on those
results.
The Company would also like to announce an update on the Green
Lake claims, which are located in the province of Saskatchewan. The
core drilling at the Green Lake claims has been delayed and will not
commence, at this time, because of the possible difficulties of
drilling the target through the ice. The Green Lake claims wererequired payments, with respect to the contract, have be
targeted for core drilling prior to the kimberlite find, at the
"Carolyn Pipe", but further examination of the drill location
indicated swift currents below the surface of the ice which may have
caused considerable damage to the drill equipment. It had been
determined that drilling other priority targets would be in the best
interest for the drilling program, while further research to achieve a
successful core drilling for this target can be attained.
Goldak Airborne Surveys of Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, Canada has
been contracted, on behalf of CMKM Diamonds, Inc., to perform an
airborne gradient survey of approximately 53,000 line kilometers. The
survey encompasses the central Fort a la Corne kimberlite cluster and
covers the surrounding mineral claims owned by the Company. All
en met and the
operation is proceeding, unimpeded. The Goldak Tri-Maxial gradiometer
system is able to sharply define and reject cultural anomalies. This
type of survey also has the ability to detect non-magnetic
kimberlites, and it is believed that some non-magnetic kimberlites may
exist in the area. The survey operations, started in early April, and
now at the end of May, are over 90% complete. The aerial survey is
expected to be finished, flying within the next week and then final
data processing will begin. When the data processing is complete, the
data will be delivered to the Company geologist for interpretation and
selection for follow-up ground surveys to determine drill targets.
There is no guarantee that further exploration or drilling will
produce any economic benefit to the Company or the shareholders of the
Company.

But then again maybe this is your answer?
CMKM Diamonds Inc. (Pink Sheets: CMKX) is very excited
to announce the ongoing drilling progress of the "Carolyn Pipe" is
currently well past a depth of 900+ feet and still in kimberlite ore.
The company has authorized the drill superintendent Dennis Miller to
drill to a 2,000 foot depth. The "Carolyn Pipe" is located on the
jointly owned Smeaton property claims in Saskatchewan, Canada, held by
CMKM Diamonds Inc., being the primary operator of the claims, United
Carina Resources Corp. (CDNX: UCA), Consolidated Pine Channel Gold
Corp. (CDNX: KPG) and U.S. Canadian Minerals Inc. (OTCBB: UCAD). Rick
Walker, company president of Consolidated Pine Channel Gold Corp.,
stated, "We are very excited to be working together with CMKX, Urban
Casavant, and the other companies on a project of this magnitude. This
is a great day and appears to be only the beginning of greater things
to come." Rendall Williams, company president of U.S. Canadian
Minerals Inc., stated, "It appears we have only scratched the tip of
the iceberg here and we are excited to see where the next stage
develops." Melvin O'Neil is currently on site video taping,
photographing and interviewing the drilling crew, as well as the
co-geologist, and will be updating the information on the corporate
Web site, www.casavantmining.com.
There is no guarantee that further exploration or drilling will
produce any economic benefit to the company or the shareholders of the
company.

UCA up a nickel GOOD eye Gump!!!!
Would Williams Kusmurski or any of the other of this huge cast of characters have any influence on this OTHER than CMKX and Urban I'm wondering?
Someone knows something apparently.......insiders?
Best....Rich
An opinion that might be tough to swallow.
But here goes
Everyone naturally whether they choose to admit it or not has become enammoured with this play it's high profile PR and maverick reputation and unprecedented speculation have coerced many into believing some gargantuan event must be about to happen at any given minute right around the corner yuppers good buddy in fact hek you mean it isn't up yet??? Tell me something....who's little voice told you that?
I think the truth is this is just a very ordinary stock. Yes we are attempting a short squeeze I firmly believe that. Look back at the PR's tell me one of substance? They are all designed to make the bad MM's cover their shorts. Otherwise Urban keeps his guard up all the time nothing outrageous just prospective.
When the time comes we will be informed properly until then it's all squeeze shorty as far as I can see. What Urban is attempting is far from easy but there is far FAR to much going on to make me believe nothing is going on. I see CMKX enveloped in a very large roll up orchestrated by deep pockets. Urban himself said look at the PR's it's all there! OK a stock CEO answer but LOOK there is a pattern of mining companies networking to become a larger force to be reckoned with. That is the quintessential roll up strategy. It's not cryptic mystic or even rocket science.
Every CEO wants to tell the world what he is doing that's natural. Plain simple truth is Urban can't do that.................................................................................................yet. :)
I'm confident of a valid explanation when the time comes. I'm confident the wait will be well worth the while when the time comes. I don't think it's far off but patience is being stretched to the breaking point all these companies around us are rocketing and we are still fueling on the launch pad that is the thorn in everyone's side.
But let's be perfectly honest with ourselves here. Who is really responsible for our lofty expectations that are obviously now creaking under the strain of an outrageously overblown expectation. Is it Urban or is all the other posters who have theorized everything under the Saskatchewan sun? Wait could it just be you WANTING to believe every good idea?
Ahh!!!!! I said be honest because it's very very important what I am asking. Look at a historical line up of the last year of PR's. This is a developing company which relies solely on forward looking statements that is not illegal. Now I ask you again folks who really and truly got your expectations up so high you cannot bear the suspense any longer. Why is it you can't find patience to knock off some silly law breaking MMs? Please stop subscribing in the To Dah Moon philosophy your only hurting yourself and your fellow longs. In reality I don't think you want a launch pad pink slow and steady that's really what dreams are made of.
I believe in this company and what it is trying to accomplish but misinformation has been the downfall of many a better company far more advanced than CMKX. Sure it's ok to dream and by golly they MAY just come true. Just remind yourself Urban is human and so are you. Remember until such time as you know better we are still a struggling pink.
IMHO we will know soon enough it won't be the motherlode and to the moon all at once for which I'm thankful I haven't forgotten shorty and neither should you. No this is a well oiled operation with a very set goal and strategy orchestrated from deep pockets or my name is DB Cooper. Hold on tight to your dreams ;)
Long & Strong
Gooo! CMKX!!

Thank you sir the penny drops knew you'd come through in the crunch MUCH appreciated. :)
Cheers Gump ...BitchieTwitchieRichieBoy
Taking this all with appropriate LUMPS of salt Gump.
Basically going on the development that Rendall is talking to shareholders. That for face value is a new development to my knowledge.
I think I see where your going though Gump. Rendall speaking out on something Urban has not addressed his own shareholders yet. For him to say HE is going to AMEX and we are going to OTC IF THAT IS HOW HE SAID IT then it would upstage Urban slightly especially in reference to OS being somewhere between 100 and 200 billion sort of lets the cat out of the bag in a preemptive fashion.
Just let's be clear here anyone can post ANYTHING on a chat board, doesn't mean it should be automatically adopted as fact. IF this was Rendall from the picture and descriptions I'm getting he could be the whip while Urban is waiting for Roger. An impatient whip at that it sounds like he is being held back IF what has been written on these boards this weekend proves correct.
I see Urban as a get things talked about and Rendall as a get things done kind of personalties. A potentially powerful combination if they get along amicably. Definitely seems all in all like we must be getting closer to a meaningful PR. That meeting in Saskatoon has been quiet , disquietingly quiet. Nice to know if everything went positively I'm sure there are i's to dot t's to cross but Roger has to be getting warm and that drill schedule GOOD GRIEF that seems to be taking longer than usual lending some creedence to some posters claims of a broken whatever. But this is all getting strung out on too tenuous a thread. This precious metal ending in ium is the most suspicious dialogue to me sounds a little over the top for moose pasture in Saskabush. Timely hype also which makes me even more questioning on it's validity. I wonder if Urban actually had that minor stroke because he had an inordinate passion for Oreo Ice Cream and was breathing too much funny car exhaust. I am questioning the company's sincerity on drilling because they are doing NOTHING to support the proliferating rumor and innuendo.
I like Rendall because he adds some integrity to a circus struggling to keep the tent up. My hope is he can lend some credibility to drilling. Roger cannot be expected to do it all. As you can see I'm not a huge racing fan but if they were to release more drlling relevant news I would be getting giddy with anticipation as I'm sure would many many others.
Treasury approved purchase of an air drill which runs at 4 times the speed of a rotary drill in March 2004. http://tinyurl.com/656ul For posters to be saying Urban is talking about two drills now is comforting but getting long in the tooth. Where is the first drill we just received 10 million dollars for goodness sake, something is not right. Urban's priorities appear seriously out of whack. Also I checked around and people that should know cannot confirm what Urban is referring too in an AIR DRILL which further blurs focus on drilling. Gump do you have a comment on what an air drill really is and what it does please?
Over zealous longs talking about hype as if it's a fact can have an extremely negative result. This is what scares me the most about this play One of crushing disappointment that all the mile high rumors were not true and people simply leave. Case in point we are all chirping on that we are drilling broken bits transmissions super oreo sized kimberlite on and on and on the biggest kimberlite in the world possibly blah blah blah ad nauseam.
Can someone please point me to a PR where it says CMKX is actually drilling right now? My question to the board is why isn't there one? Doesn't that seem strange that a promoter like Urban would not take maximum advantage of a PR opportunity like this rather than Melvin shutting down a chat room??? This to me is extremely IMPORTANT and Urban appears to be doing himself a disservice by not commenting in a PR on drilling relevant news. Meanwhile all the hype gets blown out of proportion and pretty soon the tent falls on the circus's last performance. It's happened before and Urban by now ought to know better IMHO.
I can see where racing is an important money raiser for capital but I wasn't born yesterday let's get up to speed on drilling because in the final summation that's what counts. Maybe there is a drill running on Nitrous Oxide Urban can cook up with his racing contacts. Drilling news is woefully inadequate for my liking that makes me plenty nervous. You can provide all the hyped distraction you wish but I want to see DRILLING PR's. Hopefully Rendall Williams will provide some stability and cohesion for Urban to complete this high wire. I'd sure like to think so we can't make it on UCAD's coat tails alone Urban must provide more clearly defined direction on drilling in a considerably more professional manner or my guess is we sit and grow old on the vine in an upturning market clearly NOT GOOD. DRILLING IS JOB 1 let's get 'er done please Urbie Rendall desrves a good shake and I wouldn't mind one either come to mention it.
Best....Rich
Sounds kinda scarey somehow gump...?
A carni with a degree??? WHEW!!! ....could be very dangerous thing don't you think? stock hippie will be right there when you build the time machine ride I'm sure of that LOL
I want one of those CMKX gambling chips as a souvenir stock hippie can drive the funny car I want the gambling chip. Maybe Urban can raise a dazzling sign at LasVegas airport GOT CMKX? :)
UCA creeping up. 2 cents on Friday nice to see some movement there. I have been witness to more exciting glaciers in my day...KPG holding steady. Rendall Williams uncharacteristically chatty hope he's right he sounds on the level for sure but Rendall leaving clues suggests to me Roger Glenn could be making headway and/or nearing completion. If nothing else hearing Rendall upbeat is welcome news to me.
Eagerly anticipating the next installment of "As the Drill Turns" ....
Cheers....Rich
Gump Easymonee FWIW
I did some probing around DGM a while back and chatted with a shareholder who also holds CMKX turns out. Peculiar thing that CMKX pops up everywhere? ;)
Anyway asked her if DGM could be CMKX related and she said emphatically NO she had spoke with DGM staff and that was there reply....however they also said they could not rule out Diagem INTERNATIONAL because that was their parent company and they were not informed what they were up to so could not speak for DiaGem International. Which I thought a tad more than coincidental.
Like I say FWIW could be nothing hard to say.
Gump seeing you get this jammed up about CMKX has me chortling this morning. But I appreciate where your coming from hope your right suffice to say getting a whole lot more interesting round these parts. The Roll Up business model theory IMHO holds more water this morning. Positive, but judicious sprinkling of information in this morning's PR more like a clear message to MM's "Buck Up Boys".
If this Blusson guy is found to be involved I'd be over the moon Gump thanks for your input YES I'm listening intently to all you post here so please keep posting delighted to have you on board.
Sure would like some graphics up on website as promised would be easier to understand current drilling. This Oreo which now has grown into a Mega Cookie or however you wish to put it so professional come on Melvin watch what you say PLEASE... Goodness me Melvin lets have some comprehensive support for shareholders .....Which you are on record as saying sir :(
GLTA !!!

Ron just a caution here
I recall reading where these kimberlites pancake at surface which is significant. Question needing answering is how wide is the main ore body at depth.
Which brings me back to promises from Melvin QUITE SOME TIME AGO.
Words to the effect we will be getting 2D & 3D models on website so all can better understand where and what we are drilling. I don't want to sound impatient or sarcastic all I want to know is when will these models be uploaded to our new web site?
Very positive news Ron and more indication this is a roll up business model and IMHO is being orchestrated by deep pockets even Urban has to respect and keep in mind. In other words Tramp deep pockets.... SIZE LARGE

Dusty you out did yourself
No mean feat Dusty thanks for another great link.
This roll up business model theory is gaining acceptance among posters and frankly the whole thing made sense the first time I saw it. Urban needs some clout to be a force in the FALC.
Here is a good example of a Roll Up business model and notice the sarcastic reference to how much paper the Sarbanes-Oxley produces LOL!!! Roger you paper waster you should get in with the pulp industry next! :) While the roll up can be detrimental if done improperly as seen in this example where Iron Mountain simply spread itself to thin done right it's easy to see why Urban might use this strategy in Saskatchewan.

Sorry Gump didn't link my question
See post # 89974 please...thanks

marrcooooo your getting confused
Melvin is under one HELL of a lot of family stress right now. YES your right Melvin was saying too much about nothing but in his shoes I think a lot of us would have performed far less professionally.
I'm glad for him to be attending to more important matters. Melvin was here for a long time and in truth we likely haven't gota better "friend" than good old Uncle Melvie. He just has to learn he's an IR guy now and not just an investor. He can't go wading amongst the chat rooms playing a CMKX cop that's not his job.
Comparing Melvin with Roger I think your getting your wires crossed though.
GLTY :)

jmrsage far from the only solution
$64000 Question is which one best fits the strategy for Roger and Urban. So many unknowns I was really calling on Gump's vast experience for an inkling of what MIGHT be going on.
Quite amazing the company has kept something so large so quiet for so long. In all honesty I expected it to get leaked out. In part I think it already has Melvin's Mt Saint Helen's analogy I have no doubt was partly correct but was vastly premature to all the restructuring so very difficult indeed to say whether that Melvinism still holds the same weight as when it was made public.
There is a clear cut strategy I have every confidence and September apparently (can't find it right now) was PR'ed to be the month of all the revelations to be made public.
So not bothered just steeling myself for another barrage of UC strategy theories which I'm sure we are all pretty well oversaturated on already but Gump's experience has not lead me far astray yet. The merger, the property expansion, the short squeeze all are interlocked and the common denominator I believe are deep pockets wishing to stay behind the scenes OUT of the limelight.
BTW jmrsage it's RichieBoy not Richiebuy I'm not a Neufie LOL!!!! ;)

Gump going on Urban's past performance...
I'm looking at the 800 billion A/S as a poison pill Urban could have been avoiding a hostile takeover.
Can he make another forward split like before? Specifically the 2 for 1 forward split last March I think it was... do you see this as an avenue for Urban again after all the mergering and property acquisition?
Does the idea of another forward split idea make sense after all this or can you see a more pragmatic solution? The 800 billion is putting the fear of God into everyone because the implications are unknown. Fear of the unknown the famous investors fire alarm. My thinking tells me there has to be a use for this record setting A/S and not just a good idea that came up at the bar one night. Roger chose this route not Urban I believe your right.
What does really frighten is that the company has chosen not to talk about it whether true or not they are uncharacteristically quiet right now and have been for weeks as you noted earlier. Holding shareholders in the dark is a 180 about face for management. If anything we couldn't put a plug in the flimsy PR's now they have gone to the other extreme. Is there no happy medium? LOL :)
Anyway your thoughts please Gump black ops drilling Waddup wit dat Bro? Koookie play this! Really enjoying your input here and yes SKY is very interesting nice find there thanks.

Spark don't get the wrong impression.
First objection if you do not like the word wrinkle is this PR is about a fictitious negotiator if it isn't then why is the negotiator's identity kept under wraps??? OK a missed opportunity about a great story how's that? :) My underlying SUSPICION and please very much IMHO is that some deep pockets MAY be pulling strings with baited hooks here. Seems no one thought that so I need to lay off on my caffiene intake possibly ;)
Secondly a rewritten or clarified PR has a lessened impact because the "story" is lost in translation. Meanwhile the clarifcation still does not disclose my first question WHO was this guy? So you see the story is already "old" before people can make sense of it hence the wrinkles...
Not a bash Spark but an observation easy big guy LOL excuseme while I compare notes and see the difference between the two PR's I'm getting old just thinking about it sniff :(
Not a bash Spark a longing for it to be done right for the greatest impact. A poster on another board wrote .... A successful stock is 90% promotion and 10% fact.
While I do not agree with his math I can wholeheartedly agree with his theory!

Another wrinkle UPDATED UCAD PR
http://biz.yahoo.com/bw/040831/315871_1.html
Comments on the UCAD PR
Someone knows how to finesse an agreement.
"We are extremely excited to have confirmation that all governmental and regulatory issues have been resolved and that the company is in good standing." Williams continued, "I am confident in the expertise of our joint operational partner here in Ecuador." Alejandro Diaz Silvia, geologist and operations manager for Nevada Minerals' Ecuadorian subsidiary, commented, "This further enhances the company's ability to increase its extraction and processing of gold ore from the Yellow River mine."
Someone has just pulled off a miracle is you ask me these "officials" have been holding up the works. If this were to continue now for GEMM in Brazil Wholy Hanna this thing will bust wide open! LOL My point is someone apparently has the midas touch with government officials here and it really looks good on them....but WHO?
What I find unfortunate is no names attached to the members of the management team who visited Ecuador. I'm wondering if Urban or even Roger Glenn were a part of this sure would like clarification on who the "members of the management team" ....were? Now UC or RG is a stretch but used to make my point because the successful negotiator to my mind is an unsung hero. Geez sounds like he should be enjoying cult status here and not this also ran mention. You have to project a respectful level of expertise ,cooperation and understanding with some excellent communication skills before you convince international government officials to give you a go ahead to mine. Some countries can be real sticklers for detail as far as I have read Ecuador is no exception. SOMEONE is indeed the skillful negotiator and deserves the rightful recognition for doing so IMHO because he appears here to be a collaborative superman I really hope he's on OUR side LOL!!!
Job well done & good news nonetheless! I'm liking it. Go UCAD!!! :)

Go Shore!
I'm continually amazed at the high percentage of quality whites coming from Star. I didn't realize so many could be keepers I'm quite impressed. It really is lifting the bar for the whole FALC. DeBeers has to be fidgeting IMHO. Bodes well folks extremely well.
So far UCA and KPG appear to be TRENDING sideways although both have spiked up very recently nothing earth shattering though I'm watching hawkishly Gump. Thanks Rocket appreciate the update here's a link to Rocket's post. http://tinyurl.com/3nxvb
I think the real thing to remember is Star is still in it's infancy and the 20 carat was a nice find but some maybe expecting that all the time which though possible I think is being quite over zealous. Shore curiously is selling off on this positive news and I think some are getting to high an expectation.
I'm not in Shore so as long as they get the go ahead to mine I really don't care how big THEIR diamonds are but of course wish them all the luck. Personally I'm convinced at this rate that Shore willl get the go ahead to mine Star it's just a gut feeling not a biased pump here hope I'm right but sure looking consistently positive here for Star. I agree with Gump if Shore gets the greenlight to mine Star we are going to get pulled up nicely. Bring it on Shore.
Long & Strong
