RE:Sinking Ship.........Well I think the negativity has now reached a low point so that means its time to BUY!! Really, eveything that could have gone wrong, has gone wrong. BUt, Galena looks like it is on course to make USA (and Sprott) some money. DB did make an effort in Mexico. Looks to me like a lot of blustering on both sides - Mexican politicians know the way the system works. I don't think they are interested in rescinding anything from any mining company in Mexico. Rest assured the really big companies are watching this situation closely. Any wrong moves by the government could be very costly in terms of Mining companies pouring truck loads of cash into the country.
Relief Canyon looks to me, like a bunch of guys who have never run a gold mine before, trying to start up and run a gold mine... The mining techniques used here are not the same as Galena and San Rafael so there was bound to be a few hiccups. Its just that they have an extended case of the hiccups. Will it cost Blassuti his job? Maybe... You can only use excuses for so long. But that will be the decision of the heavy hitters (Sprott, Lassonde, etc) who own a large chunk of shares. We are just the little chihuahuas yapping and being a pain in the rear to nobody but ourselves on these boards.
