fantom, thanks, i wanted to clarify part of your post in case there are any other american investors that dont know the metric system, like me.....even though there probably are'nt.....
"Total: 900 claims , 38,740 hectares = 95.727 acres in Bellechasse"
1 hectare= 2.47+acres.......................should read "95,727 acres in bellechasse"
i know it sounds rediculous, but when i first saw 95 acres it scared me....
