I'll go out on a limb here. The fundamentals for gold are sky hi! For silver they are very strong.Silver mines are shutting down and the zink/lead/copper mining is slowing with the recent depressed prices. The supply of silver is shrinking much faster than the consummption is falling. that you can no longer go to your favorite dealer and trade paper for small denominations of gold or silver (at least in my area and many other areas reported on LeMet and elsewhere).

Our day will come as long as ECU does not need to raise capital anytime soon. Last I looked they had enough to fund a couple of 1/4's of exploration. The day of reconning should put a smile on the face of ECU hollders.

I hold 200,000 shares and am feeling ripped off, but to stuborn to sell.
