I think we're in agreement about the value of a recurring cash dividend and some visual evidence of AURC's progress. When my company completes a project, there is always an open house attended by U.S. congressmen, state governors, and the general public. With the political connections of Aurus and the need for Russians to attract foreign capital, it would be a powerful message to stage a similar event.

It would be interesting to hear some constructive actions AURC could take to promote itself from members of this board. Believe it or not, the principals of this company ARE interested in what the public thinks & is sensitive to it's concerns. As a business owner, I am continually asking our customers and employees of what we may do to improve our services/benefits. I can assure you that if it is economically feasible, AURC would consider any reasonable request that would enhance shareholder value. After all, there are plenty of restricted shareholders who have invested resources and services that have a huge stake in the companies success.

A little bit of banter on a message board is fine and expected, but it doesn't do much to help most of us attain our ultimate goals. What is really impressive about Aurus is that they have shown a sense of urgency in implementing their business plan. And though the stock price isn't spectacular, the ability for the PPS to reach progressively higher lows is quite bullish.

Sorry for the long-winded message, but I only have 3 posts available to me today & I have to make them count.

Hey SometimesRight...I agree with your Dividend thinking here absolutely...


...You Said: "More SIZEABLE Cash Dividend promotes HIGHER PPS due to incentive for INVESTORS to HOLD their shares LONGER-term, rather than flip their shares as some do... helping to dry-up the float.

...EXAMPLE- A $0.10 cash dividend paid quarterly would be VERY nice..

...SUBSTANTIAL enough for large share holders to hold on to more/all of their shares, which would reduce the amount of shares being actively traded in the float... and thereby drive PPS higher due to lower supply. (imo)"...



--Furthermore and in line with your estimate (which if anywhere close to that .40 per annum amount, would send AURC to double dollar digits almost immediately) provided the company has a strategy to significantly increase the imediate processing revenues while maintaining long and short term production costs...Then (in that case) it should not prove to be an over burden on cash flow earnings....However even better for the company, if the company could devise a plan for similar 'value' of Dividends (as in your example) while increasing cash flows to dividend ratios and reducing the (as exampled) corresponding 45% equivalent of its earnings cash flows (assuming EPS of .85 for fiscal 2007)....Then it is best for all "Affluent Stockholders" long term. ;)

...Also then best to further consider a hedge for the company (in that case)...perhaps using a 'flexible' variant (if paid in all cash) as a percentage of the prevailing variant benchmark tied to the quarterly prevailing market prices of the underlying metal resource.
