RE: Gold in the groundThere may be $500 of minerals behind every share, but the process of confirming that, raising capital to build a mine and obtain access and then going out and spending the money to start up a new mine is going to take years. I expect it will be 2007 before the first ounce of gold gets sold. What the price of gold and copper will be then is anyone's guess. In the case of copper it will depend on the world economy still growing at a decent rate. If they sell NDM the price will take all these facts into account and discount from there. $ 20 still looks great to me.
