Ann: AOP - First Drill Assays from Boundiali Project, page-3

Hi thesnowkeepsfalling,

I've been following AOP for a few months. I'm always looking for gold explorers in West Africa, and even better when they are in Cote d'Ivoire. AOP is one of only a handful.

I agree this is a positive start. But I wish the share price didn't already run up over the past year. It's just too expensive relative to other options. I am a new poster to HotCopper, and the first company I posted on was TAR. I am only mentioning them because I would love for someone to convince me why I should put money into AOP instead of TAR (since they have similarities). I think they both have excellent potential for new discoveries. But it's a question of market cap and potential shareholder value for where I place my bets.

Anyway, I am also looking forward to the next drilling results for AOP, even if I never end up speculating on it. I would also appreciate commentary from others.
