Escondoro commentfrom what i understand escondoro remains on the files of canaccord (at least that was who was supposed to launch it over a year ago). plexmar continues to own the claims and i agree it would be good if escondoro could bring in some noted directors--i recall there was discussion about this at the time but that is sometime ago now. i think that should ecometals get to drill and they hit, ecuador would come alive again, just as colombia is presently alive due to ventana and to a lesser degree greystar. it was good that escondoro remained dormant during this period, if only to preserve its capital. nothing could be done in any event until some clarity from the ecuadorian government and revival of the venture markets. it is likely, imo, escondoro won't be able to keep all of its present claims but probable they would retain the most prospective claims. there is no way for escondoro to be able to tackle exploration on so many claims but if they could keep the best ones in the company's judgment that would be positive.
