Quote from RB by Guess who.
WHAT A DIFFERENCE A YEAR MAKES!
Last year, about this time, a hearty group from our shareholder s meeting joined us on a bus ride to Marysvale, Utah to assess the progress at the Deer Trail Mine. It was a bitter winter s day and when we arrived, late in the afternoon, the last of the sun s warm rays were disappearing behind the snow-capped peaks. Only the hale and hearty ventured out of the bus to inspect our new mill site. Throughout all of last year, we had been buying, shipping, and assembling the components for our new mill. Everything we needed was there, but it was dispersed about the grounds, needing to be organized into an operational mill. Geologist Dan Proctor walked our shivering group around the site, identifying the pieces of equipment that would eventually produce metal concentrates: the crusher, the ball mill, cyclones, pumps, generators, and holding tanks. At that time, only the steel girder frame of the mill building had been erected, and as we all huddled together looking at the skeleton-like structure, our imaginations wanted to fast-forward into UNICO s future, so we could see the finished, operating version of the mill. On the bus ride home we marveled at our progress, but we all knew we were not there yet; much more needed to be done before our mill would produce.
Well, after a long year of hard work, it gives me great pleasure to announce that UNICO s future is here: the vision of the mill we all imagined on the Deer Trail Mountain that day last year is a reality. Our mill is now complete and operational. The ores from two of our mines have been stockpiled and we will soon contract with a smelter: UNICO is within days of pouring gold!
Exciting times are indeed here for UNICO! We are pleased and proud to mail to all our shareholders our most recent news release summarizing company developments. While we know many of you follow UNICO news through the company website or the internet news services, such as Yahoo and Business Wire, we are mailing this release to ensure that all our investors stay informed about the great progress being made at the UNICO properties. The look of UNICO has changed since many of you purchased your stock. Some of you may not be aware of these following developments since last fall, and what a difference a year makes:
UNICO now has three mineral rich properties ready for exploration and production. We acquired two new mines this past year: the Silver Bell Mine, rich in high-grade silver, and The Bromide Mine, an excellent gold prospect in the Henry Mountains of Utah. Each of these mines could make UNICO a profitable company!
We have built a wonderful new mill at the Deer Trail Mine to process, with maximum control and cost effectiveness, all our silver and gold ores.
Our mill sits on 640 acres of newly acquired private land.
