If I may make a comment on this.

I personally..and this is just me of course... feel that the "any day now" promo is used to intice investors to buy. Once we're involved, the past and current work , sample results, and everything else surrounding the peruvian properties keeps us interested and invested for fear of missing the boat. I wouldnt hold your breath for a buyout. I dont make that comment looking to stir the pot but I've been hearing "any day now" and rumor upon rumor for over a year and I'm sure there are many who have been hearing this for much longer than that. I believe in what we have on the tesoro and that eventually we will get an offer but feel I was taken for a ride somewhat as far as how fast I was led to believe this was going to happen. lol..I remember being in a panic to get my savings into this like 8 months ago and thinking I wasnt going to get in in time.. how naive I was..

Since I have learned that there is a process, and just because there are examples of early buyouts outside our company does not mean there will be an early buyout for us. In fact I will not be surprised in the least if we get another extension added to the drill program. To me 20 000m does not seem like that much for such a potentially rich property. A person just has to decide whether they believe its because of good results or bad. Everything surrounding SLI seems to look extremely positive to me so I feel the delays only tell us its bigger and better then expected. But like I said. I'm not holding my breath for a buyout because who knows how much proof will be required for such a property.

So that brings us to discussing sp and where thats going because people are tired of waiting. And now were back to the patience factor. Round and round we go. GLTA.

PS this post is not intended to be negative or discouraging in any way...just realistic.
