I really think ZEN's inclusion at the Roth Capital Conference has the potential to be a catalyst for interest and support in the company and consequently the stock price. The fact that the conference involves "meetings in a 1-on-1 small group meeting format, consisting of 45-minute management-investor meetings to provide institutional clients with extensive interaction with senior management to gain in-depth insights into each company" has very obvious potential benefits.

Going into the weekend, I spent a good chunk of time floating around the company's website and decided to go through and re-read the bios for the "Board and Management" and "Advisory Board". If anyone hasn't done that, or has any doubt that the team ZEN has assembled is top-notch, take the time to give it a good read. Key details on a few individuals include:

Aubrey has a connection to Stowe through Noranda going way back, and his geological consulting company provides services to some pretty big players in the mining space:

Barry Allen is a Sr. VP & Director, Sr. Mining Analyst at Mackie and has an impressive resume:

Brian R. Davey has an impressive resume and has long-standing and well established relations in the First Nations communities:

As mentioned, Kenneth Stowe has a connection with Aubrey through Noranda going way back, his resume speaks for itself (including as mentioned numerous times on this board his involvement with Diamond Fields), and on top of his involvement with ZEN he is also a director of HudBay Minerals and Alamos Gold, both of which have been active in the M&A area in the last year (see HudBay/Augusta and AuRico/Alamos).

Dr. Bharat Chabar's resume and credentials more than speak for itself:

Tadashi Yamashita has an equally impressive resume and connections in a potentially key market:

Donald Bubar is Co-Chair of the PDAC Aboriginal Affairs Committee which advocates for greater cooperation between exploration companies and aboriginal communities (for those that harp occassionally on the concerns regarding aboriginal communities):

Dr. John Morganti advises a number of exploration, development and mining companies, and has held senior positions with Teck, Placer Dome and Silver King Mines.

Just some food for thought this weekend. Let's hope the market "gets it" sooner rather than later.

Cheers,
