I suggest you call and speak with Mr Leopold if you want facts and not fiction gained from message board posts.Mr Leopold has earned the Faith & Trust of the Longs that have been here thru sub-penny pinky thru up-listing OTCBB.He's a man of his word and his actions prove it.
14.6 Targets for Further Exploration The Ruby Mine property possesses a bountiful mineral endowment. It presents a target rich environment to both the developer and the explorationist. In addition to the defined resource base discussed above, the Ruby Mine property contains numerous high quality exploration targets, nine of which will be discussed further in this section of the report. Potential quantities and grades have been calculated for one lode exploration and eight placer exploration targets. The reader is cautioned that the potential quantities and grades of the exploration targets discussed below are conceptual in nature. There has been insufficient exploration to date to define a mineral resource for these exploration targets. Furthermore, it is uncertain at this time if additional exploration will result in these targets being delineated as mineral resources. The discussion below presents the basis on which the potential quantity and grade has been determined. 14.6.1 Potential Lode Exploration Targets Wolf Vein – Potential tonnage and grade were calculated for the Wolf Vein, between the – 365 (elevation 4360 msl) and – 1725 levels (elevation 3000 msl). The – 265 level is the lowest level worked so far on the Wolf Vein. As was explained in Section 14.4, inferred resources were calculated for this vein between the – 200 and – 265 levels. The potential tonnage and grade calculated for the down dip extension of the known mineralized envelope for this vein assumes that the mineralization continues at depth, with the same grades, strike length and vein thickness as seen in the portions of the vein that have been defined as resources (Figure – 17). This is a reasonable assumption; lode mineralization at other mines in the district is known to persist down the dip to depths of ~ 2000 ft. Gold Quartz Vein mineralization outcrops at the level of the North Yuba River near Downieville, at approx. elevation 3000 ft.msl. It is reasonable then to project the Wolf mineralization to this elevation, a distance of 1725 ft. down the dip from where it outcrops in the Ruby Tunnel. The potential grade of the projected mineralization ranges between 0.166 and 0.35 opt. The “milling rock” produced by C.L. Best Co. from this vein in the 1930’s averaged 0.166 opt, mainly as sulfide gold. When the specimen grade gold was added to the mill production, the average grade was 0.35 opt (Henkle, 1983). Hence the range of grades in the projection below:
I have zero doubt that there is still gold to be found in lode deposits there. The 2 big questions IMO are can it be mined profitably and will the stock suffer too much from discounted shares to finance them to get to the gold.....folks need to asses that decision for themselves
Gemstone57 is right. I also have been in for years since before the up-list and Perry has proven to be a hard working straight shooting sort of guy. There is a constant eye on the goal and Perry has been taking the steps to get there some big some small and some unexpected but the bottom line is, NBRI is and has been moving forward and Perry has proven himself.
And as far as owning the company Perry holds the most shares at nearly 16% ownership
So yes contact him. Usually there is a quick response.
