Some very good points ,Hog. Vale, Cliifs, to name a couple more ,come to mind. These guys, have had some amazing profits in the last year and a half, and have lots of cash on hand. If they don,t pay it back in dividends, then the next logical thing to do is increase their companies wealth, or (the most unfavourable)pay taxes on it.

On the Quantec side of things with our property, I would like to expand on what Jake said about the acceptance of its abilities.

What amazes me the most about the Titan images is that you can draw direct mineral correlation to the signatures of almost all the samples. The neat thing I saw when testing this, is that where the gold grades from samples were high, thats exactly where you got a higher Quantec response. Sure, by trial and error, on some other properties, you may see a 50% success rate. But on the Tesoro, for me so far, I would have to say that success in correlation, is in the high 90,s of %. Anybody can see it, if they want to take the time and plot a sample on one of the 19 slides. It would be nice if everyone here would do that, then it would not be a handful of us telling you what we see, it would be ALL.

I think also, where the sample grades on the Tesoro are so high/strong grade, that its easier to see rather than a property with low grades.
