Message: news on acquisition option & good drill results

Normally I do not like to post negative opinions about stocks I own but am annoyed:

I do not like the results and the reporting method in the news relaese of August 12.

First, who reports gold and silver content in parts per million. That is ok IF one is trying to find out where to drill. PPMs are indicators of presence of metal and could indicate direction for a possible location of economic veins. That is ok for new discoveries, before serious drilling.

But what I see from these intercepts is far from encouraging because none of them is economic IMHO.

I say that the reporting in PPMs is an admission of poor results and is reported as such to present the information in most positive terms to those that do not know better.

Similarly, presenting in silver equivalents. To me it is just a distraction as if I am incapable to do the numbers IF I even wanted them. I calculate the value of metal per ton vs it's cost of extraction and processing.

Gold presence should be in grams per tonne, same for silver ( or ounces per ton to American neighbours). A gram per ton is 1000 ppm and I need a few grams per ton on most intercepts to be pleased.

Finally, I do not like when managment throws smoke screens at it's investors.
