thanks my Ks .4946147 so same as 40th right thanks
yup 1 to 29.853165 is that what you got?
your talking ownership im talking value but whatever ,it is what it is.
ask this question why would sloan buy ffgo shares and then issue nmgl pref A B as ceo of nmgl to ffgo then walk ,give me a logical explination for that without going into debts dont have to be payed. on top of all preexsisting note holders taking ffgo shares in place of cash. so i say if this was all elaborate hoax then why was it excalated and numeriouse escape hatches never blown/used instead double downed ,explain me this ? if at best i see very agressive pro shareholder moves if this was the failure it has yet to be proven. why worry about filings if gold is packaged ?
this parts not right; "You were then told that the company would be the only recipient of the proceeds of the gold mine sale. FFGO alone would hold ALL the NMGL A&B's. "
the 8k is very specific on this
but you have the triggerman identified, that i agree with; nmgl

American Bonanza Gold Corp. (TSX:BZA)(OTCQX:ABGFF)(PINKSHEETS:ABGFF) ("Bonanza" or "Company") is pleased to announce that the 100% owned Copperstone gold mine in Arizona has placed onto transport its first shipment of gold bearing concentrates. The first concentrate shipment consists of 31.2 tons of concentrate grading an average of 22.8 ounces per ton of gold, containing an estimated 712 ounces of gold in concentrate. Gold content grades in the concentrates are over double the most optimistic expectations, and Bonanza continues to pursue further improvements to the gold grade in concentrate.
The gold-bearing concentrates have been produced during the mine and processing plant ramp up process, during early 2012. Bonanza's near term objective is to achieve the design gold production rate of approximately 3,000 ounces of gold per month, and the Company is encouraged to experience continued improvements to throughput as the miners and processing plant operators gain familiarity with the operation, and optimization of the mine and processing plant continues. As part of the optimization program to improve the gold grades in concentrate, a Gemini table has been installed and has been in use for about one month. Recently, a second Knelson concentrator has been installed, and is currently being brought on-line and optimized for best performance.
Performance of the Copperstone crushing and grinding facilities and the gold processing plant continued to improve. During mid-February the plant operated mainly continuously, with low production for optimization and maintenance taking place in three days out of a thirteen day run. During the ten days that the plant operated continuously, throughput improved to an average of 390 tons per day processed, which represents 87% of design capacity. With continued steady throughput improvement, Bonanza's goal is to achieve throughput at the design capacity of 450 tons per day during March 2012.
Head grades during two weeks of mid-February averaged 0.41 ounces per ton of gold which is above the expected life-of-mine average grade. Currently Bonanza has insufficient data to report any increase in the currently predicted grades over the first year of the mine life. The rising head grades are partially a result of the processing plant working through the low grade rock which has been stockpiled at surface for startup. This initial low grade material is currently being replaced by mine ore production. The surface ore stockpile currently contains approximately 2,700 tons of ore.
The processing plant continues to perform well, as indicated by the consistent and low grade tailings assays, in the order of 0.06 ounces per ton gold during the two weeks of mid-February. Low gold grades in the tailings indicate that most of the gold being fed into the plant is being collected in the gravity and flotation circuits where high grade concentrates are being produced. The gold processing plant has been treating ore grade rock for a short time, and accordingly performance estimates are preliminary in nature.
During the two weeks of mid-February, overall gold recovery in the processing plant was estimated to be 85%, according to preliminary data. During February, the gold grade of ore delivered to the processing plant roughly doubled as compared to January (a partial month), and the tailings grade rose as a consequence. As the operators become more familiar with the plant and the Copperstone ores, Bonanza expects the processing plant to adapt more quickly to the changing grades, and achieve consistently low tailings grades. This would effectively increase the overall gold recovery. Additionally, optimization of the gravity circuit is aimed at further improving the gold recovery over the next several months.
Underground mine performance continues to improve. During 2012, the mine has been focused both on development mining to gain access to future ore bearing stopes, and mining ore from currently available stopes. Over a ten day operating cycle, excluding one day when the mine did not produce ore, the mine averaged 214 tons of ore per day, nearly half of the design mining rate of 450 tons per day of ore. Surface ore stockpiles currently contain approximately 2,700 tons of ore, which will allow the gold processing plant to continue increasing throughput as the mine tonnages increase to provide ore to the processing plant. Bonanza's objective is to bring mine production up to design levels as the processing plant works through the surface stockpile, so that when the stockpile is drawn down, both the mine and the processing plant will be up to their 450 tons of ore per day target levels.
Plans have been formulated for resource expansion drilling. The Bonanza-owned underground drilling rig has been refurbished and will be delivered to Copperstone in the next week. While preliminary in nature, the current exploration plan has the goal of now commencing underground resource expansion drilling during April of 2012. Drilling has been re-scheduled by one month to allow for the installation of all underground infrastructure needed for the drill.
Mr. Brian Kirwin, President & CEO, commented: "Shipment of the first gold in concentrate represents another important milestone in the operation of the Copperstone gold mine. Performance of the mine and processing facility continues to steadily improve in every aspect. We at Bonanza are encouraged by continued improvement in performance, and look forward to bringing the Copperstone gold mine up to design throughput in the near future."

WELL Im not walking away from the gold noway nohow.
its u guys not us lol thats whats amazing its nonshareholders
Bouse, Gold Mining and Exploration Project:- Dr Wayne P Colliston prepared this report, in August, 2004 on the 1,300 acre Bouse gold (silver ? copper) property situated in the La Paz area of western Arizona, USA, near the California border. At the gold price of approximately US$400/oz (in August 2004), this provides a value estimate for the deposit in the range of up to $600 million. This estimated gold resource is for the little Butte area only, and does not include any potential from the remainder of the property. At the current Gold price of circa US$800/oz, the revised and updated valuation report , will be significantly higher.
So based on this valuation, today the value should be close to 1.86 billion $ with the price of gold at + $1239.00. (Caution: this is a super-rough estimation of the in situ value)bullfinch
BACKGROUND ON "BOUSE" AND "SOUTH COPPERSTONE":-
"Bouse" and "South Copperstone" are both located in gold-rich La Paz County, Arizona, and represent a class of deposits known as detachment fault deposits. This type of deposit is prevalent on both sides of the Colorado River in both Arizona and California, and mineable resource is typically in the 500,000 ounces to 5 million ounces gold range, with a grade of .05 to .2 ounces of gold per ton.
The detachment fault type of deposit was first recognized in the 1980’s with the discovery of the Copperstone gold deposit, from which Cyprus Minerals mined 500,000 ounces of gold by open pit. Another mining company is presently exploring the remaining underground resource (which is believed to exceed 400,000 ounces) and is assessing feasibility of reopening the mine. The nearby Mesquite deposit, located in Imperial County, California, is also viewed as a detachment fault deposit. Mesquite is several times the size of the Copperstone Deposit and was mined for many years by Newmont; Mesquite is presently operated by Western Goldfields.
The South Copperstone property is a large contiguous claim block immediately south of the Copperstone Mine. Past drilling has identified gold in quartz latite, as well as a geophysical anomaly in the center of the South Copperstone Claim block. Further geophysical (including magnetic) work is planned to develop future drill targets.
The Bouse property was previously explored by Homestake Gold (now part of Barrick), which found gold mineralization throughout the property. Drill data is available for approximately 80 Homestake drill holes. Previous work by another mining company identified a 500,000 ton resource along two high angle faults that were not extensively drilled by Homestake. Exploration plans include integration of results from the previous exploration and new geophysical (including magnetic) work to identify additional drill targets, particularly along the high angle structures, with a view toward increasing the resource.
from ffgo 8k look it up///////
Bouse Property, a Mid-Tertiary system of epithermal mineralization was introduced into a stacked sequence of lithotectonic units that are located on the northern side of the Plomosa Detachment Fault. Complex epithermal gold, barite and fluorite mineralization is superimposed on earlier copper-specularite mineralization. Gold occurs in laterally extensive breccias and in steeply dipping amethystine-quartz veins. Past district production (over 2/3 of which was from the Little Butte Mine) averaged over .4 oz/T gold. Strong likelihood of a major detachment fault associated gold/copper deposit, similar to the proven and mined Copperstone and Mesquite deposits. Past drilling by Tenneco, U.S. Borax and Homestake found significant gold bearing intervals in both the breccias and high angle structures.
Project Summary The Bouse Project involves an important new type of Arizona gold deposit, called a "detachment fault" deposit. Detachment fault deposits were first recognized as a separate form of gold deposit in the 1980's. Enclosed within this pack is an article by noted Arizona geologist Joe Wilkins Sr., which describes the leading theory about how they formed. The best example of an Arizona detachment gold deposit is Copperstone, which is about 20 miles from Bouse. It was the biggest gold discovery in Arizona in at least 50 years. Cyprus Gold profitably mined the 500,000 oz open pit resource during the 1980's. American Bonanza is presently doing underground drilling. It looks like the underground high grade resource is even larger. Enclosed are some materials on the Copperstone for your general information on its history and American Bonanza's present activities there, which are the major news in Arizona gold exploration at this time. Unlike Copperstone, Bouse is an historic gold producer. 5,000 ounces were produced from high grade ore early in the 20th century. It was also worked as an underground copper mine. Most of this production was from the Little Butte Mine, which is the centrepiece of our land position.
Starting in the 1980's there has been a lot of exploration work at Bouse. Per Arizona Department of Mines and Mineral Resources records, prior to 1983 a 16 hole drill program blocked out 5,000,000 tons of material ranging from .05 to .30 ounces gold per ton. These drill-holes were in the immediate vicinity of the Little Butte underground mine and the Little Butte open pit. The drill hole locations are indicated as drill holes of an "Unknown" exploration company on the enclosed Homestake Mining map.
Next, Fischer Watt exploration, a well regarded company based in Butte, Montana, leased the Little Butte mine. They estimated the resource more conservatively, at 2,000,000 tons of .07 ounce per ton rock. They drilled exactly one 290 foot hole near the Little Butte underground mine and encountered 7 gold bearing intervals.
Tenneco then took over the project. They drilled 17 holes and found gold bearing intervals in 10 of them. Not only did Tenneco find gold at the Little Butte underground mine and open pit, but they also found gold at the Arrastre Mine, the Blue Slate Mine and the Flat Fault Mine, all of which are included in our project.
During 1984 U.S. Borax drilled 18 holes in the pediment to the west of the historic mining district along the inferred course of the Plomosa detachment fault. Three of these holes met with success. We have a lot of material from this project, and it is included for your review. These are the packets and maps from Corn & Ahearn and PCMI. While we have not viewed this area as a high priority, some of it has been included in our present land
position.
Starting in 1987, Homestake Mining leased the central part of the district (called the Brindle claims -- these are the core of our present land position) and acquired an option to purchase the smaller patented group to the west called the Paradise Mine, which is not included in our project. Homestake drilled over 50 holes over a 4 year period. They found significant gold mineralization everywhere that Tenneco did at the Little Butte mine and open pit, the Blue Slate Mine and the Flat Fault Mine. They also put down seven drill holes in the vicinity of the detachment fault. Enclosed is a pack which we obtained from
Barrick which includes all of Homestake's drill logs and assay results. The map at the rear section entitled "Alteration, Mineralization and Drill Holes" includes all of the drill information for the previous work by Fischer Watt, US Borax and Tenneco.
What does the future hold for this gold deposit? While a gold deposit this big will take a substantial amount of work to turn into a large proven reserve, this should be a simple and straight forward effort if the drill programs focus on the core deposit, rather than concentrating on peripheral areas. The core deposit may be visualized as an inverted "V" with the Little Butte underground mine near the apex, the Little Butte open pit, Flat Fault mine and Blue Slate mine along the left leg, and the Airfield deposit at the bottom of the right leg. If, as we believe, the entire area of the inverted "V" turns out to be a mineable open pit resource this would be a far larger gold
deposit than the 1,000,000 +/- oz Copperstone, and may be closer to the 10,000,000 oz size of the Mesquite mine, which is another detachment fault deposit in California.
Another high priority area is the granite block located within the confines of the inverted "V." There is high grade gold mineralization at the Arrastre Mine, which is near the southern end of the granite block about 4,000 feet south of the Little
Butte underground mine. Homestake did not even bother to map this area in detail, which is surprising given the extensive surface shows of copper oxide and the abundant quartz.
Also included are the two major geological reports on the district. (1) The Jemmett report, from 1966, is included because it gives some good descriptions of the individual mines. While Jemmett is not very enthusiastic about the mineral possibilities of the district, his report predates the discovery of the detachment fault model of gold mineralization, which turned Western Arizona into a "hot" area for mineral exploration. (2) The second report by Duncan was funded by Homestake. An important
conclusion (p.37) is that the high gold and copper values are in a NE/SW band corresponding to the left leg of the inverted "V" referred to above.
Included with the projects is the Burnt Well property, also located in La Paz County. We have acquired about 640 acres along the Bullard detachment fault in the vicinity of the Silver Lining Mine, and plan to add at least another 480 acres. While Cominco drilled the Bullard deposit to the east along this fault, Burnt Well escaped the attention of the majors during the 1980's gold exploration boom. A limited amount of material is included from the Arizona Geological Survey and the Arizona Department of Mines and Mineral Resources. Preliminary surface sampling shows similar grade (approximately .1 oz gold per ton) as the open pit resource at Copperstone. There is no recorded production for this district. However, from the size of the dumps, it is obvious that there must have been substantial production in the past.
