Hi Gerwin...

Thanks for the feedback on your meeting with Mr. Middelkoop.  I hope that your personal work with him brings positive results.

On the topic of "discovery investing" and your feelings about juniors working The Ring of Fire, I really think - as you do - that there is tremendous upside potential.  Clearly a "five bagger" for NOT would be terrific: other people including John Bill Kaiser would concur.  However, some of the other juniors including SPQ, potentially face an even rosier meal time.  A 16 cent share price (as of TSX close today) is just an appetizer.  (I apologize for the food metaphor.)

I was very busy today but I hope in the next day or so to make a phone call to IBK here in Toronto to do some "sleuthing" with regards to their " McFauld's dog and pony" in Europe.  I can't guarantee any exciting news, but I'll see what I can find out.

Regards,

Snug
