Reflecting on this, I'm not too surprised now that the presentations received such interest. Tombstone and Bisbee are well known to mineralogists around the word, especially in North America, and very probably too in the Philippines which were once a Protectorate under supervision of the United States - they did not receive their independence until after WW2. US influence there would include somewhat of the same veneration? of the Wild West and Wild West mining history as we have here.
I can say this as one who has been there, though not in recent years, and not only grew up around numbers of Philippinos, but served with them too in Vietnam.
I'm sure there are investors and mining professionals in the Philippines who would be quite drawn to the prospect of working with mining opportunities at the HMSP. ...got to be more exciting for them than, say, the thick, remote and oftentimes mountainous jungles of SE Asia.
