1.8 kilos in a month is nothing....with the amount of money being invested here, SGC should be mining 1 kilo per day. If not they shouldn't be in Sierra Leone. Maybe they should come to Liberia...

Sounds like your exagerating on a couple of things.

Get your info correct. or at least get caught up to speed.

We have drilled wells, built bridges, and roads along side of AG.

The agriculture is doing well enough to grow X2 every season and doesn't require additional money from our mining operations. We are paying our workers about $2 a day. And we will be making a lot of money from our agri soon enough. The main question is will the company report it to the shareholders? Since it is a Gold stock and people like you would have a fit if they pr agr, we probably wont hear much in the near future.

As far as the politics goes....its a relatively new minister of mines....why not ride it out while its good? He could be in this position for the next decade for all we know.

I know this company has a lot of work to do in getting its crap together, and there are a lot of points unmentioned, sounds like you need to be on one of these CC's.

Here is a link for a great video explaining the basics of the diamond market in general. From extraction to cutting and sale. Very interesting documentary done by National Geographic. It focuses mainly on Sierra Leone.

Since when is first locating & then appointing qualified local individuals to handle key elements of their biz dealings a bad strategy for SGCP Sparky?

Would you prefer SGCP hired someone from some other country to send over to SL to handle their gold sales? Perhaps you'll offer your services to SGCP to control their gold sales? And I'm sure you'll offer your time/services to find 'em some buyers free gratis since it appears you have such a problem with the locals SGCP has employeed to handle certain aspects of their SL biz dealings right!

And I honestly have no friggin' idea why you're complaining about SGCP's agricultural endeavors in SL! I mean you even state that your firm employs similar endeavors in Liberia as a social responsibility service. So why shouldn't SGCP devote some resources in SL on agriculture especially considering the ongoing POOR STATUS of SL's agricultural landscape & the fact that they're employing locals to increase their agriculture production endeavors each year.

It's not like SGCP's not focused on their mining biz model & devoting the necessary time/resources to mining. It's simply a case of also devoting some time/resources on agricultural endeavors which employs/feeds the locals at a time where SL needs all the help they can get as they try to rebuild their entire infrastructure after the decade long civil war that ended approx 6 or 7 years ago.

And in SL it probably costs SGCP approx $2 per worker/per day for their agricultural endeavors...so it's not like it's a drain on SGCP's resources especially when one considers that SGCP is debt free is it!

I guess you'd prefer that SGCP didn't do anything at all to assist the locals & show the PC's(they continue to get the property concessions from) that they have integrity, compassion & understanding for the fact that SL still has such a long way to go to rebuild their entire country's infrastructure to anything even remotely considered modernized standards!
