Jorge Medina is a very wealthy man with an equally wealthy wife. But his company is the co-owner of the mine with SIRG.
There is no lack of transparency in a relationship because there is no other relationship.
Please post proof or verify your statement that Jorge has ties to Brazil and why that is a bad thing.
The SIRG board members demand proof and not any hearsay! PROVE IT!
Correct - SIRG has 6 months to get the permits and funding released. And at the rate of speed that Rod has been moving forward in 2012, that will not be a problem.
When something needs doing, he hires an outstanding international company - ALS Metals, Rizzo, Marcum, and lastly CDM Smith, who was named a Top 50 Employer in Workforce Diversity Magazine.
Go for it - but I doubt our extremely busy CEO will bother to respond! Even SIRG shareholders rarely get a response and the last email I got from him had only this.
:)
Low volume is not a problem for SIRG - there are only 222,210,154 shares in the float, not some 600M or more!
SIRG is not in default in the payment of principal, interest, asking or purchase fund installment or other default with respect to any indebtedness. There is no toxic financing unless notes are converted.
A survey was already taken asking any SIRG shareholders who are not green to please identify themselves. NOT one person responded. Go back over the posting history and find the posts on that subject to verify for yourself.
WRONG AGAIN
It was stated on June 6th by SIRG's CEO at the town hall meeting but you already knew that. How could you forget?
SIRG is not in default in the payment of principal, interest, asking or purchase fund installment or other default with respect to any indebtedness.
Don't worry about SIRG it is doing fantastic and Feb of 2013 is a long ways off. The notes will be paid so no problem of future dilution!
The DTCC chill is a major issue for those companies with questionable officers and stock manipulations especially pinks.
The chill was removed on August 14th and is now a dead issue since SIRG is no longer subject to it.
For companies like SIRG with 3rd party independent proven assets there are several sources of funding like Red Kite, Arizona Pension Funds, and foreign banks.
There are also several members of SIRG's BOD who are wealthy enough to fund the Chloride copper mine development by themselves and private investors!
I agree and SIRG investors are NOT losing any money. We are all a lovely shade of green.
People who invest in pink non filing companies are the ones at risk of losing their investments and SIRG is Fully reporting OTCQB!
SIRG investors know about the many companies that have died a slow death because they had to use convertible notes.
Not the case anymore with SIRG.
Item 3. Defaults Upon Senior Securities.
SIRG is not in default in the payment of principal, interest, asking or purchase fund installment or other default with respect to any indebtedness.
The DTCC chill was lifted over a week ago!
On or about January 2012, the Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation (“DTC”) suspended post-trade settlement services (known as “Global Lock” or “Chill”) for our securities. Upon our inquiry, the compliance department at the DTC advised us that the Global Lock had been instituted due to their uncertainty about the valid issuance of shares of our company held in street name under their nominee Cede & Co. Our management subsequently provided documentation necessary to lift the Global Lock, and on August 14, 2012, the DTC advised us that they had resumed accepting deposits of the Company’s stock for depository and book-entry transfer services.
Funding a start up mining company is always a difficult process and only those mining companies that can provide 3rd party independent ore reserve test results have a prayer of getting funded.
But there are companies like Red Kite (check them out) who do fund companies like SIRG. They know the struggles that junior mining companies endure to get a mine into production and it is not a problem.
Did you know that there are mining companies being funded by funds from the Arizona Pension system???
Yes the length of their notes is getting shorter because they are getting closer to funding and production. Makes perfect sense.
Truly sorry for your discomfort, but Fogo is a very common name in both Florida and Brazil. It is likely a private company and none of anyone's business and neither is Grand View Ventures. The word venture in their name tells me that they are likely a venture capitalist company that funds start ups.
Medina is the co-owner of the mine! There are no Medina company members on the SIRG BOD nor do they server nor have they ever served as officers. There is NO INSIDER RELATIONSHIP AS YOU SUGGEST. That is just plain wrong.
Thanks, I have so much to post about SIRG and to keep everyone informed.
Item 3. Default Upon Senior Securities 10Q June 30, 2012 page 41 will attest to that.
We are not in default in the payment of principal, interest, asking or purchase fund installment or other default with respect to any indebtedness.
With all debts current and funding available upon the receipt of the permits, there is no reason for any dilution.
Yes - the LOI will be closing - just watch.
SIRG already knows they will be expanding the pit and will likely add another heap leach pad and pond. All the components to expand the SW/EX plant to 8M lbs were purchased by James Stonehouse back in 2008-2009 when he was employed by Copper Mesa as the VP of Operations there. They are stored on site and the plant will be expanded to increase production.
On June 6, 2012, the Company signed a Letter of Intent (“LOI”) with Upward Investments, LLC (“UI”) for the purchase of UI’s 90 acres of land adjacent to the Company’s existing claims. The Company would like to acquire UI’s property for the Company’s mining operations. Further representations and warranties shall be included in the to be drafted Definitive Agreement.
This is a huge parcel of land and makes sense for SIRG to get it now. The Gold areas on the map are BLM land.
SIRG volume is low because of the small float and the longs are not selling.
Lots of people are making the mistake of waiting for the final funding details and they will be chasing SIRG.
SIRG has done what very few companies have been able to do.
DTCC CHILL REMOVED!
On or about January 2012, the Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation (“DTC”) suspended post-trade settlement services (known as “Global Lock” or “Chill”) for our securities. Upon our inquiry, the compliance department at the DTC advised us that the Global Lock had been instituted due to their uncertainty about the valid issuance of shares of our company held in street name under their nominee Cede & Co. Our management subsequently provided documentation necessary to lift the Global Lock, and on August 14, 2012, the DTC advised us that they had resumed accepting deposits of the Company’s stock for depository and book-entry transfer services.
SIRG A WINNER
Those who bought SIRG on August 9th, 8 days ago has a gain of 66.67%. Still undervalued and under the radar.
A copper keyboard - For The Mining Executive who has everything!
The Australian chapter of the International Copper Association showcases the latest copper product destined for the world's hospitals, or the boardrooms of mining companies looking for something a little bit different on the corporate gift register this Christmas.
Copper is inherently antimicrobial and Colorado's Operator Interface Technologies has produced the world's first commercially-available antimicrobial copper keyboard.
According to the company a US Department of Defense study "identified computer input devices as being among the most contaminated surfaces in an intensive care unit patient's vicinity" but using copper cuts infection risks by more than 40%.
Read more at the International Copper Association or pre-order a keyboard from Operator Interface Technologies.

SIRG new released at 4.02 today!
Sierra Resource Group's MPO formally accepted
Sierra Resource Group, Inc. (OTCBB: SIRG)announced today that its Mine Plan of Operation has been reviewed and accepted by The Bureau of Land Management. This formal acceptance has allowed Sierra to submit its draft Environmental Assessment in order to comply with the National Environmental Protection Agency.
"We're working closely with The Bureau of Land Management and the interactive process is positive," said J. Rod Martin, Chief Executive Officer of Sierra.
About the company:
Sierra Resource Group, Inc. (OTC Bulletin Board: SIRG) is a U.S.-based exploration and mining company committed to the exploration, discovery and development of gold, silver, copper and other mineral resources. Sierra's primary asset is 80% ownership of the Chloride Copper Mine located near Kingman, Arizona. Sierra has reached an agreement to purchase half of the minority interest taking its overall ownership to 90%. The technical report, NI43-101, by Scott Wilson Roscoe Postle Associates March 10, 2006, estimates the Chloride Copper Mine contains 27,000,000 pounds of copper. The company is looking to expand throughout the Americas in the near future.
Sierra plans to use open pit mining and plans to reopen the existing SX/EW Plant On-Site with the maximum capability of producing up to 5,400,000 pounds of Copper Cathode per year. The existing SX/EW Plant On-Site is environmentally friendly, cost effective and a quick production process according to an article published by the Copper Development Association in August 2001.
The Chloride Copper Mine deposit is hosted by Late Tertiary conglomerates and, to a lesser extent, by Quaternary alluvium and Cretaceous granitic rocks. Copper mineralization at Chloride Copper Mine is in the form of mineralized lenses contained within a paleochannel approximately a few thousand feet long and up to 750 feet wide. The source of copper at Chloride Copper Mine is interpreted to be the low grade porphyry-type copper mineralization at Alum Wash, about 3.5 miles northeast of the Chloride Copper Mine deposit. The mineralization is characterized by dark blue to black rock similar to the Exotica deposit, a satellite of the huge Chuquicamata copper deposit in Chile.
Sierra's management and Board of Directors consist of expert geologists, mining professionals and experienced business people.

I got sentenced to a month in prison after sending 2 PMs that were SPAM. At the time I sent them I did not realize that including a link to another site in a PM was Spam.
Now that I know what I did wrong, I would certainly never do it again. Lesson learned.
After six years as a paying member without a problem, and being good in jail, could you please consider an early release? I promise not to SPAM ever again.

SIERRA is a U.S. based mining company, headquartered in Nevada, committed to returning the Chloride Copper Mine in NW Arizona to production in early 2013. SIRG is currently working through the permitting process. SIERRA is a OTCQB (STOCK SYMBOL: SIRG) and owns 80% of the mine. SIRG plans to expand through acquisitions and JVs throughout the Americas in the near future. SIERRA is committed to exploring, responsibly and maintaining environmentally friendly policies while impacting the local economy in a positive manner that will allow its shareholders to take pride in their investment.
The Chloride Copper property consists of 37 unpatented lode mining claims and 12 millsite claims, and is located 24km northwest of Kingman, in the Wallapai District, Mohave County, Arizona. An open pit mine and the existing SXEW processing plant operated at the site from 1995 before being idled in 1996 due to low copper prices.

Paul C. Rizzo Associates, Inc. (www.rizzoassoc.com) was hired in Jan to assist with the permitting, testing, heap leach pad design and re-engineering the pit.
The Rizzo Repost was released on April 30th. It increased the reserves and they are higher than previously estimated. The existing ore below the current bench levels from 3695 to 3420 values known between 3420 and 3310 could add another 13Mlbs. Many holes were abandoned with higher than cut-off grade Cu values in and around the existing pit. Their continuation at depth could prove additional resources. Based on the forgoing, it is safe to assume that the current known resources would provide a minimum of 50 Mlbs of ore; at 5Mlb/annum, that would support a 10 year mine life.

GDSM is running another I-HUB momo pump that will likely end exactly like the two previous pumps - creating another generation of bleeding investors.
http://www.jetlifepennystocks.com/
GDSM was to receive the test sample results from the 5 gal. buckets of gravel from the Gold Crown mine from WSRA after the first 2 weeks in July and nothing has been released. Results must be bad or they would have been touted in a PR.
Instead, GDSM announced yet another potential JV with WSRA, to open the Davis Dunkirk Mine with production within 3-4 months. Any mining industry investor knows it take that long just to get the permits. (The two previous JVs with WSRA failed due to lack of funds.)
The shaft is flooded with toxic water but no problem!
I wonder if Home Depot carries those tracks and carts?
Now how are they going to fund the purchase and restoration of this mine without any money?

I have been a paying member of I-HUB since 9/21/2006 and I have never had any restriction or problem with I-HUB in almost 6 years.
I have over 15,300 posts on I-HUB and I would say that is an excellent posting record until problems began on a board that I moderated for over 1 1/2 yrs, also without problems! It all fell apart on July 14th when I was relieved of my mod job.
Based on my past history of posting and being a mod on dozens of boards, I feel my sentence was a bit harsh and I should be given time off for good behavior.
I have been taught my lesson and would be extra careful on posting and ask you to reconsider.
How about restoring my posting privileges and no PMs since I am in jail for PM spam?
I really need to be able to defend my investments from the lies that are being posted on the SIRG board.
Appreciate your considering this deal.
Thanks

SIERRA is a U.S. based mining company, headquartered in Nevada, committed to returning the Chloride Copper Mine in NW Arizona to production in early 2013. SIRG is currently working through the permitting process. SIERRA is a OTCQB (STOCK SYMBOL: SIRG) and owns 80% of the mine. SIRG plans to expand through acquisitions and JVs throughout the Americas in the near future. SIERRA is committed to exploring, responsibly and maintaining environmentally friendly policies while impacting the local economy in a positive manner that will allow its shareholders to take pride in their investment.
The Chloride Copper property consists of 37 unpatented lode mining claims and 12 millsite claims, and is located 24km northwest of Kingman, in the Wallapai District, Mohave County, Arizona. An open pit mine and the existing SXEW processing plant operated at the site from 1995 before being idled in 1996 due to low copper prices.

Paul C. Rizzo Associates, Inc. (www.rizzoassoc.com) was hired in Jan to assist with the permitting, testing, heap leach pad design and re-engineering the pit.
The Rizzo Repost was released on April 30th. It increased the reserves and they are higher than previously estimated. The existing ore below the current bench levels from 3695 to 3420 values known between 3420 and 3310 could add another 13Mlbs. Many holes were abandoned with higher than cut-off grade Cu values in and around the existing pit. Their continuation at depth could prove additional resources. Based on the forgoing, it is safe to assume that the current known resources would provide a minimum of 50 Mlbs of ore; at 5Mlb/annum, that would support a 10 year mine life.
