''If Tesoro is viable, how come there is no mining on it, thus far?''

Who can say for sure there is no mining on it?

I think there probably is, I doubt the informales mining the adits have vanished, and Sendero Luminoso are still in the area apparently. I know of other miners that have complained that the informales keepreturning to their property, so I doubt Tesoro is the exception.

But The informales mine high grade narrow veins, not disseminated gold which requires a whole lot more machinery and plant to extract it. If anyone is mining the ovoid for diseminated gold, they wouldnot be able to hide it IMO.

Do YOU think anyone is mining disseminated gold from the ovoid?

Or are you referring to narrow vein informale miners mining high grade addits?

In Canadian mining, people are often asked to "bend over" several times, it's up to them to resist and say "no more"!

I don't think they could raise very much money with Lori in charge either, but I do feel they are going to try, hence the recent posts by Beyondhelp here, and Dryhumper over there.

Sadly they show there is no change or willingness to compromise, with beyondhelp making demands and issuing orders, rather than suggestions, and then she wants you to pay for the news release too!

You really couldn't make this stuff up!

Negotiating a Syrian peace deal would be a walk in the park compared to being able to find a compromise that would allow SLI shareholders to retain control if there is a refinancing.
