Petaquilla Minerals Ltd. (fka PTQMF)

Tom Byrne is manager of corporate communications,(read propaganda), since late 2005 or early 2006. I do not believe that they are at full production since they really had to work to reach 70%. They made a lot of promises to the last administration in 2006, 2007, 2008, no of which were even close. You need to talk to someone on site who is not a corporate spokes person. I think Mr. Byrne is walking very close to an SEC inquiry with his statements.

My advice is to relax. Things move very slowly at times in Panama and there may be no cause for alarm. If it gets real cheap like last year...buy a big chunk at $.25-$.30 if you believe our future is $1,500.00/oz gold. It is not a scam...the infrastructure is there and so is the mine. The gold...well maybe....personally, I have never sold a single share of Petaquilla.
