well, alamos got its financing before the fall in share price - now 3 canuckbucks a unit looks good doesnt it? this will give them enough dough to get the mine up and running - and they hired a guy with the experience to do it! this acquisition should give them a higher profile on the international scene. BUT when are they getting their AMEX listing? hopefully when the POG heads north to 480 as jim sinclair says it will. "you write em, i buy em" gotta love the mans approach. jon
