I think it is confirmed from todays' announcements and the content of them that everybody is waiting for the Coal aquisition to be announced.

Everything announced today is pretty much as expected, however, it does seem that the prospectiveness of the Gold tenement has heightened.

The next 8 or 9 months look very promising on

1 The Laos Bauxite front
2 The aquisition front
3 Drilling for gold

The only issue is that we have said this before and have been continually let down.

What's different now?

The coy. is in a much better financial and strategic condition than under previous management.

However, this is ORDs last chance to gain credibility and attain the share price that Management think it deserves.
