Everready,

I too am interested in the Ecuador situation. With the coup attempt against Correa late last year it is indeed an interestng political environment at present. Other mining companies have recently been granted their leases back, particularly the gold miners. I hope SAY are still pursuing discussions about how to proceed the Ecuador operations in some shape, even under a JV with the govt owned mining company. Anything to get some value out of all those sands over there.

The company seems focussed on the traditional mine in Chile, and that's terrific, but I hope they don't miss an opportunity to get things back on track in Ecuador as well.

I'm very concerned about the lack off news from the company regarding the Henan farm-in and also the constant lack of funds. We need an answer from Henan soon or else some other plan to come up with funding for the 2nd phase of the drilling program.

Living in hope of hearing news of any kind from the company.
