captain, I'll have to say that the rumors you are hearing seem to match what littlebride has heard. I hope both of you are right. Although, I hope we don't gap up on Friday, because I want to buy more.
it makes a little sense as the gino r. guy used to be a mayor so thats why he is involved iam sure..but remember too the gold is out of madagascar so they must have an arrangement in place!!
the way i see the situation with the so called elders of the town or village that owns the land is you give them the going established rate whatever it takes and thats why they have the r and r guys from madasgascar to handle these types of situations.i dont know all the details but it cant be worse than having to deal with a chavez or some other dictator in the world but all these contingencies are negotiated to everyones satisfaction and still your overall costs will come in far lower than say CARLIN TREND IN NEVADA...the big boys are going so far down in nevada they almost come out the far end of the earth so total costs per ounce are pushing over $450 an ounce..fortunately madagascar is a pretty friendly place right now and the rewards are so big that you really need to smooze with money but not out of control money i hope...bring on the news!!!!
