Petaquilla Minerals Ltd. (fka PTQMF)

They are in fact in the Registro Publico. The company was registered in May of last year and its director appears to be a twenty-something administrative assistant at a sugar production company in Chiriquí. It is not unusual to obscure corporate structure by nominating peripheral individuals as corporate officers. We've discussed that before. So I guess it is possible that some sugar baron is going to throw Fifer a lifeline. But I'm still as confused as ever as to why anyone would loan $25MM to a company with a market cap of $5MM. I think tomorrow I'll go down to the bank and take out a thirty million dollar mortgage on my house, see how that goes.

Anyway, I did some looking around at the people involved in this company to see if I could find any recognizable names or interesting relationships. Nothing so far, but I didn't spend too much time at it.
