RE: INTERVIEW WITH COUNTRY MGRI met this afternoon with the GLOBESTAR country manager. He was very positive on the outllok for the Company.He is not a financial person. He indicated the mine life at 9 years and could be much longer based on their continued exploration of the area. He said that they have two drills working at the present time; that they expect to ship their first copper concentrate in Sept or Oct of this year from the Port of Haina. Regarding the nickel situation, he could not give me an answer. It depends on total nickel found; talks with Falcondo or possibly constructing their own nickel processing facility.
