MINCO gold and silver explorer.... the facts

Lenghty conversation with a contact in the company reveals much of the detail about the Dorman departure.

While the contact did not in any way bind me, I feel his frankness and open-ness with me deserves to be respected, and it would be poor reciprocation if I were to create difficulties for him.

My language therefore will necessarily be guarded.

The situation is this: one of the (lower-profile) directors had built up a certain rapport with the Minera Sisa people. More than one director believes that the "play" here in the next year or two will be as much diplomacy, community relations and the personal touch as it will be mining and engineering.

It is likely that Minera Sisa will be viewed, five years hence, as at least as important in the long run as Laguna. (That last sentence is admittedly IMO.) I am reassured that relations with the M Sisa people are sound: those individuals are needed by MIO as much as vice versa.

None of us on the BB were happy with the director sale of a million shares. The company's OFFICIAL reaction, as you all know, was anodyne...

Nuff said.
