Been reading the Hot Copper forum for a while and finally decided to publish my first post.
Some may suggest not to take into account, the people leading an exploration company. Although, in some cases it may be the case, we should not disregard the experience of a man like Mark Johnson.

Apart from the above, add to the fact that Conto has a very low market cap and is reasonably cashed up, not to mention a promising site in Udu with a thorough 3 stage exploration plan.
If this isn't encouraging for investors, then what is?
This is simply the opinion of a shareholder holding approximately 1.3% of the market cap.
Feel free to add, comment or correct any of the information I have posted.
Cheers and all the best to everyone.
