Many thanks Silver Ion for your thoughts! I was just wondering in general what the internal controls are for all smelters and miners because it doesn't take much imagination to think about how these precious metals can disappear rather easil and quickly from the many hands that process them without very stringent controls. I was just trying to think about these controls and I thought veterans investors of mining stocks would have to have a good bullet proof answer already and I don't think it would be all that secretive.
