Ann: Lepidico Appoints 2 Non-Executive Directors, page-21

Agree I certainly didn't see Brian's appointment coming. I assumed Bacchus was a given, however in retrospect, we've already secured his services in the area of future funding procurement, Bacchus paid for primarily in LPD shares.

Mr Talbot's appointment further reveals the writing on the wall IMO. The alliance is genuine and very exciting to be a part of. Both companies have been coy around the relationship for some time.

The beginning of last year, some of us here starting joining the dots on the possibility. I remember speaking with our exploration manager TD, at the time. Poor Tom, I was drilling him for any indications confirming my suspicions. Credit to him, he gave nothing away. I received very diplomatic politician's answers. However, my BS detector lit up. Further fuelling my suspicion.

I doubt we'd have any more luck on the LPD side of house, regarding that shipment to Japan. Loose lips sink ships. We know GXY likes to keep their cards close to their chest.
