Unfortunately, the tendancy to think you know something about the mining business creeps into investors minds when they read the bull boards for a while. If you've never been to a mine make a point of visiting one and seeing what the conditions are realy like. Exploration drilling goes on in freezing conditions at -40C with barely any protection for workers. A deep mine like the San Antonio takes over an hour to get to working faces each way. Just a couple of the many problems that exist.
