I noticed Iciena just issued some more options.

I always look at options and what the strike price is set at to determine whether or not it’s a positive development. In my opinion, it usually sends a message to the market that establishes a relative bottom and puts the incentives in place for Management to deliver added value for all parties concerned.

I hope with this latest development we can get going and learn about what's been happening in the back ground these last months. I wonder if drilling has already gotten underway in Brazil?

Besides that it looks like all is falling into place to ADVANCE this story along... with warrants and options now available, once this gains momentum again we should see enough funds going into the coffer to significantly advance the RC and or Core drilling on those high priority TARGETS.

Pitter patter lets get at her BOYS!

Best regards,
