IMHO ZEN is the real deal and has always had the right approach. It seems to me that ZEN has taken a solid fact driven appraoch from the beginning as soon as it was clear what was in the ground.

Build scientific information on the graphite that will sell it to end users and customers. Its not gold or nickel and every graphite deposit if different. Albany is just that much different and there has never been a graphite discovery like this before. Sri Lanka vein deposts are the closest thing to Albany and their material garners the highes price in the industry and most is snagged by the Germans.

Enlist government support to make sure that the appropriate research and development work gets done on the deposit, processing and product development.

Hire the best people who can help direct the product development into the highest priced graphite spaces, such as synthetic markets, and people with direct access and knowledge of the key (Japanese and Korean) customers.

Bring in stratagists who can help to guide the company to its final destination, whats better then a lifelong mining expert who helped guide Diamond Fields Resources to a buyout. Remember the Voisey's Bay deposit sold for $4.3 Billion in 1996 three years after it was discovered.

No news doesn't phase me at all. I want to new release that says Company ABC has offered to buy ZEN for XXX Billion, thats the only news that is really required.
