Could you please elaborate what you mean by, " personally feel that this position of lack of news releases has a direct correlation to the price of the stock....as Puplava says this stock should be trading between 20 and thirty !!!"?

I think that by the company not keeping the public ( retail investors, stockholders, investment advisers, etc.) informed as to what is happening with the mine development people will begin to loose faith in the company.

Everyone here ( eight of us) were surprised that the company was not leaching gold and would not pour gold until August at the earliest. IMHO the company should have come out with this information as soon as they knew it was not going to happen....they gave me the information when I called them so it is not being held back.

My point is that this kind of very important information should not be held back from strockholders.....when it does come out it just gives management a "bad face" !
