RE: RE: RE: earnings The decrease on all but revenues were expected. In Q2, we had a one time (for now) benefit of 2,574 oz from the Ming mine (vs 410 oz in Q3). The Ming gold ounces are at zero additional cost. This was fully expected and pre-announced on the Q2 conference call. What is good is that the gold produced was down only 193 oz and net income nicely be Q1 ($4.9M vs $4.416M). It may ytake anthother 5-6 quarters, but the numbers should be about double current levels. I can wait and will buy more on any significant pullbacks.
