BATTLE MOUNTAIN GOLD INC V.MMR

Options I recant

[i2]

I had a look at the compensation paid to management (about $180K for 9 months) and outstanding options (1.8 m)...thats not too bad given how long this company has been in place and wher they are.. Looking at the financial statements..looks like this company is very legitimate and not geared towards using investor funds to enhance gains for certain individuals..... I think things are looking really great here..not only do they have Lewis penindg but they are on the win win side of Buffalo (they have no $ commitments, but hold a large stake).. I think we will see the options approved and the stock run over the next month or two...............PLUS management has allot of credibility in this industry...........................I hope my 20K shares are worth 100K soon
