Great Basin Gold Ltd. (fka GBGLF)

[goldenpolarbear]

Dano, Thank you for your insightful opinion on the varied GBG scenarios that may lay ahead. I appreciate how you peppered your thought with actual pertinent facts so...

Personally, I am still hoping for a joint venture with Great Basin Gold/Waterton Global Resources/Barrick regarding the Hollister mine and the longer it takes for a press release regarding the Burnstone Mine & Southgold; I am thinking the Chinese may have acquired our 24 million Au Oz GBG mine in South Africa. I would enjoy talking to Barry Coughlan who is Director of Great Basin Gold Limited and has worked in China and Tibet about ...

His principal occupation is President and Director of TBC Ventures Ltd., a private investment company.

If the Chinese have purchased our Burnstone Mine do not expect any information until July. No matter how good the deal was they will demand varied concessions and force the best possible deal and will take their time before signing any final agreements.

I sent a polite email recently to Waterton to no avail and no response, so I think GBG and Waterton are still hammering out the fine points of their deal/JV?

This is all going to take time; unless we are talking about acquisitions with very few strings attached (highly unlikely IMHO)

Cheers,
