Hello all ~ just a quick post today, my family is suffering a great loss and thank you all so much for the PM's and emails during this last month... amazing how we don't know what we look like but are very connected after many months on the board... I've found this board to be extremely compassionate and caring with family issues.. Again, thank you so very very much....
On a exciting note, this is from Chambers and Partners this month under 'Projects: Chile' (the numeral '1' next to the law firm name is relative to the firm being in the highest ranking tier available for a law firm.

This first-class firm draws much of its projects work from its success in the energy, mining and real estate sectors. It handles infrastructure and environmental projects and also advises on the full range of related corporate and technical aspects, including M&A and due diligence. Sources regard the firm as a central player in the market owing to its vast experience across the board. Juan Paulo Bambach has an established name in mining and proves a valuable asset to the projects team, given the high volume of mining projects currently underway in Chile. Sources draw attention to Marcelo Armas' strong financing background and highlight him as a considerable asset to the projects team.

I can say I have seen all I need to see with my own eyes, via Chile's Sernageomin sites and topo maps, I have verified the subsidiary CLIL, the concessions just as William announced in the claim titles, and Juan Paulo Bambach, as well as our Chilean law firm, www.philippi.cl
* Check out their website 'Operations' tab, this firm is not beholding to any calander of the MMTE investors, they make huge moves., huge moves that take time... we are swimming with the big fish now..
I never rely on anyone's opinion except my own. I stay as I believe we will see .04 or better...
