A number of people have expressed their concerns regarding James West's apparent absence from the BNN scene for various reasons, the amount of money we are paying him to promote, the apparent lack of value for our investment in him etc. I do not believe these are fair comments or that any amount of promoting he could have done prior to the release of the technical report would have dramatically improved our sp support.

At this time I believe there is an opportunity for James West to explain the potential of this company in the context of our 43-101 technical report. As a community, I believe we need to educate a number of investors as to the nature and scope of deposits created by hydraulic fracturing so that they will begin to see the potential that many of us already do. James West has the opportunity to do this now and as such I believe the questions we should be asking him should be slanted toward "educating" the BNN viewers.

Examples of questions we might want asked:

1) Please briefly explain what hydraulic fracturing is and how this event may have led to the formation of a large scale gold belt in the Beauce region of Quebec?

2) What is the significance of the recent 43-101 compliant technical report by Golden Hope Mines with respect to their goal of proving up a world-class gold deposit?

These are leading questions but I think they cover the key recent developments (in the absence of another news release before tomorrow morning) for our company and deflect the conversation away from phraseology like "nugget effect" etc. Also, I believe at this stage the more West addresses the facts the more respect he will get from this next wave of potential GNH investors.

If he doesn't address GNH tomorrow I will be neither surprised nor upset. I have learned from Sasha that James West is as valuable to the company behind the scenes (creating company contacts and providing consultation on issues relating to company promotion) as he is on his soap box so I am comfortable with our investment in him at this time. That said, I'm sure he would like the opportunity to exercise his incentive options so maybe that will light a fire under him.

Best,

Scott
