It could also be that Jim Sinclair's internet "education" on pay as you go for exploration miners finally registered a wake-up call for buyers.
I think Sinclair's Chamber of Mines last summer was an education for many junior miners. He taught the juniors to stay clear of the bankers. ECU is now in a position to capitalize on those Sinclair words of wisdom.
I think we owe a great many "thank yous" to Jim Sinclair.
