blah blah blah
notice the dates
12 days after finalizing the purchase, the vendors (KMA), have done a deal with axy - - and what a deal for the vendors. for whatever reason, the previous tenement holders (who had the ground for 6 years), never mentioned any prospect of any ore being available at the Zoroastrian or Excelsior Pits .
the previous tenement holders, mentioned that the ground had previously been held by "goldfields" - yes, the owners of the paddington mill. one thing for certain, is that ore from the tenements that axy have acquired, would be closer, than a lot of ore, that is presently being treated through the paddington mill. in other words, "goldfields" had the ground, and dropped it, the previous tenement holders had the ground for 6 years, did a lot of drilling, even bought a plant with the intention to start mining - and dropped it. amazingly, 12 days after the sale (by the previous tenement holders), axy manage to release a report, which looks so promising - which was never reflected in any reports by the previous tenement holders
a previous poster on these threads has mentioned that the mining at the Excelsior pit, was completed (the rest was probably in the wrong place, or uneconomic??). from what watso can see, the previous tenement holders, never even considered any ore at Excelsior (yet they would have had all the data). "goldfields" would have had all the data, - and they had the mill - for crying out aloud - "goldfields" had the mill at paddington, and were not interested in the ore that was still at Excelsior
for those posters, who were doing high five's when axy did a new deal with the vendors report 29 March 2010 - but the vendors are laughing all the way to the bank
what watso has posted, is to the best of his knowledge, and he is more than happy to be corrected (frankly, watso has no shares, and could not care less).
from what watso can see (and the market as well, it seems) - this is a tired old prospect, it has already been extensively explored - and axy are drilling the dregs of the prospect. of course, there is always the "chance"
frankly, this prospect is no where near as exciting, as what the axy reports, make it out to be. watso used to be neutral on the stock - but this is a big SELL
