Thanks Plow for a great article. It's obvious the U.S. i s in one heck of a financial mess & is dragging the rest of the world down with it. I think we are heading for one of the worst recessions in more than 50 yrs -- this is just the beginning & so many people have had their heads in the sand for so long it's pathetic.

Cash & gold are two great places to be right now & Silverado appears to be in "the perfect place at the perfect time". As you say, 100 % owned & no hedging re gold. Infrastructure in place - time for the junior mining companies with tangible assets to shine! The best is yet to come!
