Some have been surprised at the quick closures of the recent Private Placements ...wait Silver, as the news that's coming is substantial and the response will be overwhelming...5 months is enough time to see the dollars flow in my opinion ...Both Brent Johnson and Jorge Lopehandia are set on making this work, one way or another...if anyone can make this happen it's Brent Johnson
goldpanner
Those wins you speak of will see a much bigger retraction and consequence than the 6 retractions that Mountainstar were forced to take ...
Barrick Gold is in the fight of its life as this is starting to steamroll and they may not be able to find the breaks to stop it!!
When they have to admit to the Canadian courts that they, Barrick Gold, fraudulently sued Mr Lopehandia and committed fraudulent acts within Chile and Argentina with the Protocol and Pascua Lama ownership, you may see them implode ...it will take everyone invested with them into the vortex ...this could shake the investment world and ripple down through every country known to Barrick Gold
goldpanner
Thanks Jorge ...appreciate the information and look forward to the news from Brent and Company
goldpanner
Silver underscore Bars ...did I not just mention that the tables have turned on Barrick Gold Corporation ...Mr Lopehandia has just again indicated that he has the Title to Mina Pascua and that it will be backed by a Press Release in the near future...If you are an investor in this Company you should be smiling and not trying to underscore everything that Jorge Lopehandia and Brent Johnson have gained so far for this Junior. If this comes to fruition you may just have to change your handle to gold bars
goldpanner
You're point ???
goldpanner
My take is that Barrick were banking on Jorge and Brent to be brushed off by the Courts ...the same ones in which they decided to try and discredited this high ranking Judge. They were also banking on the "Concession" to be what Mr Andy Lloyd says that they can mine gold, silver and cooper with within the Pascua Lama area of which Jorge is deemed to be the owner of the Chilean side within certain perimeters.
Now it gets even better ...Barrick decides to fudge the Protocol based on false ownership and to set there biggest asset in terms of processing etc on the Argentine side of the Border. We'll just build a tunnel over to Chile and scoop up all their resources and take them out through Argentina were they have not been scrutinized to the same degree as on the Chilean side.
Now the tables have turned on them ...they have little invested in Chile in the scope of their total operation in the Andes. They may be able to mine the existing staked and owned properties but if they lose the Protocol they will have to split their operations and then deal with the Chilean Mining Ministry whom they have defrauded along with their investors, the commissions and the banks worldwide …good luck moving anything out of Chile
I see Barrick Gold Corp in serious trouble and I question all of the hoops that Henry the Miner posted to lay Criminal Charges against the Barrick Staff in Canada ...I would sure like clarification on that from someone in the know ...anyway have a great evening pumpkin

Creamer Media's MINING WEEKLY.com
"Lopehandia’s conflict with Barrick goes back more than a decade, starting in 2001 when he claimed to be one of three true owners of an area adjacent to Pascua Lama, which Barrick had bought from two other individuals in 1994.
Not sure who the source of the information that Henry Lazenby is banking on for his story, but I'm afraid this paragraph gives the reader the conclusion that Barrick's Pascua Lama is in fact in a different area than that being contested by Jorge Lopehandia and Mountainstar Gold Inc.
We need the "Company" to set the record straight and release accurate news prior to these media outlets take...it's been what 7 days since December 6th ...

The more you, Hutch, and Yourkidinright post, the more I question your place in all of this ...I wonder what your goal is and what you truly believe ...it is good to question and make sure that things are in order but both of you come across as total non-believers and my question to you both is, are you "Investors in Mountainstar Gold" ,if so, what are you hanging in there for if you do not believe that this Stock will do you Good...
I have swung the hammer more than once around here ..I believe that it is in print and it is stated that the statements are "true" and signed as such by our President and CEO and BOD to the Commission and the CNSX that Jorge Lopehandia is the "title owner" of Mina Pascua ...the Company has to set disclaimers in place on everyone of their releases as do other companies that are required under Securities Law and each has to try and display to its "Investors" what direction the company is moving in...I believe that MSX is doing just that !! Otherwise we would be Halted ...

Only to say that, that news was out in the October Monthly ...It doesn't look good for the Boyz or Us. Not sure what it means as per the instructions to pursue a specific course of action, that could mean close up the books on Washington. Hard to believe that with the information at hand and the "trail" left by Fitzgerald that his Estate was still able to dodge the bullet ...hard to pursue a dead man !!

Slight Twist to the information in October's news which was not published in previous months
FORM 7 – MONTHLY PROGRESS REPORT
November 14, 2008 Page 4
Mr. Lopehandia had submitted evidence of improper inclusion of the TESOROS concessions by Barrick Gold Corporation's Chilean subsidiaries, in the Protocol.
Specifically that, MINERA NEVADA LIMITADA had no title to the TESOROS concessions which remain under injunction on title, C-1912-2001 valid to date, in Mr. Jorge Lopehandia's name.
I know you'd come back with the excerpt below so I thought I'd save you looking it up …

NEWS RELEASE
July 24, 2012
“Barrick’s” Pascua-Lama Project and the Bi-National Treaty (the “Pascua Protocol”)
Mining publication Business News Americas reported on August 12, 2004: “Representatives from the governments of Argentina and Chile will meet in Santiago to sign the mining integration treaty protocol for the Pascua Lama bi-national project, Argentina's mining secretary reported. The protocol will provide the legal framework to begin the gold and silver project, whose construction will require some US$1bn. The document will be signed by Argentina's foreign affairs minister Rafael Bielsa and his Chilean counterpart, Soledad Alvear, together with Argentina's mining secretary Jorge Mayoral. Also present at the ceremony will be provincial authorities, legislators, and Argentine and Chilean businessmen, among others. The Pascua Lama project is owned by Canada's Barrick Gold (NYSE: ABX), which has already greenlighted development of the project on the Chile and Argentina border. The project will have a three-year construction period and will begin operations within 18 months once tax and financing issues are settled, the company said in July.”
Mountainstar Gold Inc., the Company, formerly known as Mountain-West Resources Inc., is currently funding a legal challenge to the bona fides of the Pascua Protocol in Chile and seeks, among other things, a Court Order that the Pascua Protocol be extinguished. Without the Pascua Protocol, the Pascua Lama project, as currently proposed by Barrick Gold Corp. and its subsidiaries (referred to herein together, or variously, as “Barrick”), in the opinion of Management, cannot possibly proceed. The basis for this Court challenge is that the Pascua Protocol was erroneously obtained upon fatally-flawed representations and assertions by Barrick, which errors are detailed as follows:
1. Amarillos 1-3000, a mining concession obtained by Barrick from Lac Minerals in 1994 and included in the Pascua Protocol, is a non-metallic (salts and nitrates only) concession according to Sernatgeomin (Chile’s Geological Authority) and as such, cannot rationally support a gold and silver project.
2. Amarillos 1-3000 is in the process of Mining Registry cancellation in the Courts at Vallenar, Chile, owing to a long-outstanding super-positioning flaw (per the Chilean Mining Code).
Neither the Canadian National Stock Exchange nor the Investment Industry Regulatory Organization of Canada (IIROC) accepts responsibility for the adequacy or accuracy of this release. Neither the Canadian National Stock Exchange nor the Investment Industry Regulatory Organization of Canada (IIROC) accepts responsibility for the adequacy or accuracy of this release.
3. Barrick, which claims to own Tesoros Uno 1 - 30 to Tesoros Doce 1 – 5 concessions (“Tesoros”) and which concessions are also included in the Pascua Protocol, has admitted to the Court at Vallenar, Chile that it does not possess any documents of ownership of Tesoros, nor does it possess any valid legal rights in Chile to allow the exploitation of the Tesoros concessions. Accordingly, in the opinion of Management, Barrick must cease claims of ownership or legal control over the Tesoros claims or, potentially face serious consequences in Chile, where such transgressions are taken very seriously by the Courts.
4. The Tesoros concessions have been subject to a Court-Ordered Injunction since 2001 which prohibits, among other things, contracting with, encumbering or otherwise commercially exploiting the Tesoros concessions pending the outcome of a Court action in Santiago, Chile (case No. C-1912-2001). In the opinion of Management, the Tesoros concessions, having also been included in “Barrick’s” Pascua Protocol, should never have been claimed to have been owned by Barrick, as these concessions have never been legally owned or controlled by Barrick, in accordance with Chilean law.
MSX’s joint venture partner, Mr. Jorge Lopehandia, owns unencumbered title (certified domain) to the Amarillo Norte and Amarillo Sur concessions (“Restituted Amarillo”), over the Mina Pascua Chile areas of geological interest. These concessions are positioned super-imposed over the Tesoros areas, which Barrick's own lawyer Gonzalo Nieto identified, in 2010 Court proceedings in the 14th Civil Court of Santiago, Chile (case no. C-1912-2001”), as possessing the greatest geological interest for the Pascua Lama project. These Restituted Amarillo concessions are described in the Option Agreement between the Company and Mr. Lopehandia.

Quer ...Private Placements are open to anyone who want to open their wallet !! Just call Bruce Olivier or me ...I'll take the finders fee ..
As for a voice ...you have one here and on some of the other boards and your voice could be heard at the AGM as well ...it may not be backed by a Million Shares but who am I to know what kind of weight that backs you !! But remember, you do have a voice and a say at all levels of this Organization, email, phone, msxgold.com, direct emails to the brass.
Quer, you have used your voice to get your points across ...some agreeable and some not ...keep asking the tough ones as somewhere down the line someone has to answer them ...
I never got into this without some Hope of seeing some returns ...but you know I've gained some knowledge of penny stocks I never had before and an insite as to how a Company like Mountainstar Gold Inc, nee Mountain West Resourses operate and that alone has been a good experience ...
goldpanner
Quer...
The Bearing Sea and Coastline as you have witnessed is ladened with Gold ...I believe there were some "Title" issues in Juneau to address as well and hopefully Brent has that in order with AMEx as I think there is potential there for the Company. Newer technologies in recovery could make this venture a profitable one in my opinion...Of course that can be questioned !! Along with Mr Bowen 43-101 (very quick) Report on Juneau
Mountain-West Resources Inc. advised in its Jan. 21, 2011, Stockwatch news release that it had retained Barney Bowen, PEng, an independent qualified person (as those terms are defined in National Instrument 43-101, standards of disclosure for mineral projects), to prepare a technical report to be made in compliance with National Instrument 43-101 on the company's Juneau gold project in the city and borough of Juneau, Ala. The report was completed on March 15, 2011, and is to be filed on SEDAR on March 16, 2011.
This Report was less than positive but again I question the motives of Mr Bowen ...time will tell if his professional opinion will carry some truth and validity as to the viability of this project.
goldpanner
The Original Option was ( No changes to Option that I'm aware of )
In March 2008, the company entered into an unwritten option agreement with Howard Lockwood, carrying on business as AMEx Mining (“AMEx”), pursuant to which the company acquired an option to acquire a 50% interest in the Juneau Project for an exercise price of US$700,000 (the “Juneau Option”).
As of April 30, 2011 payments totalling $531,216 (US 559,9980) have been advanced to AMEx

Another PP is in the works ...
Peanuts, Popcorn, Crackerjacks ...Ice Cold Coke-a-Cola
Here-ye Here-ye ...Mountainstar arranges $399,880 private placement
Proceeds of this financing will be used for property acquisition and general corporate purposes
You know this one might just be the best one to invest in yet as the share price is a wee bit higher than the 0.26 price per share ...if the share price goes up another 0.12 cents and stays there for 4 months you've doubled your money ...with options How sweet is that !! Just think ...26 x 2 = 52
Its got to be a good thing !!
goldpanner
So Jorge what's the deal with Hector Llanos...his name keeps coming up on the Company site and in almost everyone of your posts lately ...is he the cog in the wheel...is he the one that can derail the Mountainstar-Lopehandia Train ??? I have read it many times that he is the titular owner of Mina Pascua yet your name is shown on the sidelines on the Titles ...I have yet to get this straight in my mind...you have a caveat, or an easement on Pascua and yet not “clear” Title ...can you explain
goldpanner
From our Last Monthly Report
Juneau Project, Alaska
Currently the Company is investigating the feasibility of acquiring a 50% interest in a tailings remediation project at Juneau, Alaska which has the potential to produce gold. No further payments had been made to AMEx during the month of October 2012 to exercise the Juneau Option.
Testing in this project continues and a 50,000 ton test mining program is being carried out. The Company is considering to exercise its option on this project.
I appears to me that testing is ongoing as per the "COMPANY"S" latest report and that we as a Company may consider the final installment payment to make Juneau a reality ...

Pima County Arizona = No Return on Investment

Mina Pascua Chile = No Return on Investment
“Mr. Lopehandia and his legal team were in court in Santiago on September 5, 2012 in the matter of perjury charges against Barrick in Chile. Barrick’s legal team informed the court that this issue had already been dealt with. The criminal judge then ordered the case to be moved to the appeal court which was going to be heard on October 9, 2012.
This case was heard on October 29, 2012 in Vallenar, Chile. Barrick’s lawyers informed the judge that Barrick Gold Corporation (Canada) did not own these claims, Minera Nevada SA owned them. The next date in court is November 13, 2012.”
2012-11-19 07:28 ET - News Release
Mr. Brent Johnson reports
MOUNTAINSTAR GOLD INC. - BARRICK'S PASCUA LAMA PROTOCOL TRIAL UPDATE
Mountainstar Gold Inc. has made legal disclosures on proceedings at the 23rd Civil Court in Santiago: Case C-17.273-2012, Jorge Lopehandia versus Fisco de Chile (Chilean government).
Mr Jorge R. Lopehandia Cortes = 3 Million or so in forwarded funds ( Not in Trust )
Mr Brent H. Johnson = Salary and Stock Options
Shareholder Deficiency 2011 = (10,693,751) and growing
Investors - No Return on Investment !!
And yet the Company remains “Silent” after the November 13, 2012 Court hearings in Chile and again "Silent" after releasing the PR Nov 19th 2012 Case C-17.273-2012 Writ
Someone has to come forward with the truth on all fronts especially Mr Lopehandia

Silver, the Option Agreement is a Binding Legal Document on Both Parties, I have read it extensively...it allows the "flexibility" require under the circumstances to both Parties and has been amended once and may be again to suit the needs of the Company and Mr Lopehandia. Nobody walks away here, as you seem to be insinuating ...Protection is for those who Speak the Truth and are willing to Abide by the Law of Respect and Trust. All those who are “in” are in under no guaranties ...

Careful choice of wording Rover ...
Something that MSX will need to do if they put anything in print. I'm somewhat confused as we get a message from PF whomever that individual is, but somewhat close to the source in my opinion and Jorge coming back on the Board to state some facts that have yet to be confirmed by the BOD and the COMPANY ...and yet we are getting nothing, ziltch, nada !! Has something gone wrong in Chile, has it come off the Rails as the latest was that Barrick was under order by law to produce Titles as per a specific time-frame...what has the Judge's judgment been, where are we at ...are there no little gains or strides that the company can devulge outside of securing a Private Placement ...and another Private Placement . Is this the only news that Brent Johnson can give the investors or a hint of things to come to those chompin at the bit to buy in...
goldpanner
Well Hopefull...In My Opinion
THIS SPELLS "BUYOUT"
Of course this was December 2011 and a lot of water has passed under the bridge ...but my gut feeling is that Barrick is in an even worst position than when these SEC filings where done and they need an out ...
goldpanner
Someone has told Pascuaforensic that something has happened in Chile ...
"MSX has Pascua in Chile and ABX is from the outside, sadly looking in and selling lies "

So where are we at Jorge ...
What is Brent doing these days, where's he ...
Is MSXgold.com ...really our sanctioned site ...I for one like it !!
So do you see us having a DUST problem...
Do we want to throw out the BOD or the MOD's of this board ...
I will keep posting this once a day until there are changes to this site ...I am like any other one that posts here ...we exchange information, we exchange idea's and we banter back and forth ...Even Jorge and I have had some differences but you know you get the "REAL" goods from him and I for one respect him for that ..and if I'm outta line let the followers state that ...I am not one to accept any outright decimation of character, or profanity, but a good rebuttal and exchange is healthy ...
