Edit this title from the Fast Facts Section
Several years ago a similar operation was underway in Manitoba.. Gold city combined with san Gold turned into San Gold Resources and was trading at .18 ..... Took several years and many placements to bring SGR back into production and define resources.
I think SAM has a leg up on SGR in the production side, producing about the same amount as SGR right now. There is also considerable upside at SAM for the resource side... This is where the company needs to emphasise the potential buildout of SAM.... That financed when the share price increases,,, at this time the share structure of SAM is very good.... doing a PP at the right time to fund exploration has the potential to drasticly increase sharholder value.
So far this looks pretty good!
