copper $5.50 pound this year would definatly guarantee sirg funding but i believe it will happen before that ,any day it could happen. im even willing to work at the mine myself just to get the ball rolling of course ,i shall dig out my shovels from the garage and purchase some mules this weekend to get prepared for the grand opening of the sirg mine ,anyone got a extra mining helmet.

WOW, you should have posted that. Copper above $4.00, which it hit last year, would be great, copper above $5.00 would be AWESOME!

This is what I found - looks good. Everyone predicting a nice rise.
