An addition to my last post when Chavez cancelled our contract we shareholders, through our gracious and skilled management, spent $500M on planning, research and infrastructure in Venezuela. Remember the $35M (maybe more) of mining equipment stored in a Huston warehouse? That too was firehouse sold.

All this means that if our return is approx $200M that we are getting back 40c on each dollar we spent there. Certainly not fair.

So (just guessing) if you have 100k shares and you have to sign them over to Gowling you are actually risking $50K. Hmmmm!
