San Gold's CEO, Mr. Dale Ginn, whose done an excellent job bringing his company from and exploration and development junior to a successful miner, was recently replaced by a man with more experience in Mine Management, Mr. George Pirie.

So, this begs the question, "at Some Point In Tyhee's Progress Should Webb Step Down?"

It would seem that Jim Puplava's criticism this Spring of Tyhee management may have have been assuaged if such a replacement had occurred, but perhaps Jim got it wrong, again!.

As there is at least one example, perhaps with its own flaws, that suggest there are people who CAN do it all and go the distance from exploration, development, into production. One such example would be Mark Bailey of Minefinders. Who, incidentally seems to be a sort of hero of Webb's.

What I don't know is whether Mr. Ginn, the former, San Gold CEO, happily gave up his post to the new CEO, Mr. Pirie. Or, if the board eased him out. SGR's stock rose several percent on the news.

Baires.
