Got  him with great  reception  and sure enough driving back  to Sacramento after  10 days.  He  and  Dent  will do update.  Placer will be  running, probably  next  week with tests  and  he and  Julio finished  the blast  permit for submission.  Had  Elias, ( Ures  claims) U of  Sonora geology  prof out working  assay with Momo and  still expect  will be running full 2 oz/ton from  Julio 2  shaft with the  explosives  use for  40 a shift  and  producing  exceptional   cash. Both will run on  bare 1 oz placer  as operating  cost daily. Clearing a  good  44 oz as  Mexus share after  family placer  split.  $50K.   That would mean  then negotiation was all about  funding the  resource drill program and plan and  construct  the  pads   and  leach recovery.   He  did explain the   best back up  in Tucson would be  for  a much smaller partner  in the  shaft  mining alone which would  produce  own funds  to do it all if that’s  his  decision on the offer.   He  does  say compared to what was being  offered  the family before  Mexus  it’s been an enormous  amount more so decision  is  it enough for  what he offers them.  Curb the  enthusiasm and  we’ll see  soon.  Not exactly  NY Eve  fireworks; best I can come up with. 8
