Thank you for this Buckbrush!

I believe this to be another important piece of the puzzle, mainly this part below;

" Our management team had their plate full yesterday. Paul Gray was in town but I never got a chance to chat w/ him as he & our management team were busy filming an inteview @ CBC. The interveiw will be aired, to the best of my knowledge in late February. "

So, an interview with CBC eh? Very interesting, what would be so worthy of a CBC interview back then? And why didn,t it ever air?

I will add here that many profitable mines in Peru are operating economically on gold grades LESS than 1 gram per ton gold, of course with other metal complements, but we have those too. The extreme high grade and continuation of our veins alone, surpasses the sub gram ore these other mines are mining.

Here is but one example, look at their measured & indicated ore grade of the La Arena oxide area, .410 g/t. Then think about how far a 1 ounce gold grade per ton vein could extend sideways at the .410 g/t. There are ~ 33 grams in an ounce, so lets say that .41 could divide into the 33 grams about 60 times. Then we know a ton of rock which hosts the gold on the Tesoro measures approx 1 meter wide. So, this means that a 1 gram per ton gold average of the 1 ounce per ton gold grade vein, could theoretically be mined economically for a width of around 66 m WITHOUT any other introduction of mineralization. BUT, THE C-3 VEIN and the C-4 VEIN, are respectively at 68 m and 32 m North of the C-1 Vein, and run almost parallel to the C-1, with grades in the ounces! So, as you can see from this information, the C-1 Area of the Tesoro alone, could easily average 1 gram per ton gold, and be TWICE the grade of the La Arena Project which has around 6-8 million ounces of gold.

The truth; the Tesoro is a very valuable property, as are the Vilcoro and Cueava Blanca as well.
