Phantom,
Firstly you have somehow covered a number of prickle issues which somehow escaped normal scrutiny.
IMO the lack of "big boy" interest is twofold in that most of the majors are no longer interested in the spec market no matter how incredible the story is and the POS as you say is currently "so well controlled". We also haven't had a decent success story in Australia in recent years IMO. Most writers on "Kitco" are expecting at least a 30% increase, in the Silver price in coming months but that will only take us back to the levels of 2-3 yrs ago, so no big deal again ATM. Let's face it also our past reporting has been horrid. A few years back we employed a consultancy firm to write and release our update and for a short while it created some general interest in IVR. Delays have been another thorn to many. We are again IMO always 4-6 weeks behind schedule for whatever reason and John (give him his dues) loves writing, delivering and giving "presentations". In 2013 at least 10 but again the hype and subsequent results don't "match up". Paris was John's crowning glory and many now believe that it was just a "one off. ATM we also have several conflicting reports on "Maslins" (are we going to have a lash or is it also J/V bait). "Cartarpo, Burra "does it really look like the real McCoy and if so how long. Finally we remain highly under capitalised, with huge "overheads" so we can't really put together a real or decent "exploration programme". Unfortunately I am unable to attend Church this morning so my prayers will no doubt go unanswered for at least another week. Something has "got to give". Surely we can't throw 100 darts and miss the "Dart Board" every time. Still scratching for that prev report of a major "ore body" under Paris, (at depth).
