Scorpio -

Correction on your chart - I am using the US $ price of Wheaton -
which was 1.98 at time of contest but is now $2.51 in US$'s. Therefore
my gain is only 26.7%.

Hi ! This is a worthy initiative. It is fun and provides ideas.... Maybe it should be limited to companies with reasonable daily volume.

My pick is: Crucell - Nasdaq: CRXL.
This is a Biotech firm, development only. Having some great products under the belt. If testing proves to be succesful, then it is gone to be a gold mine. This year it has tripled, now some months consolidation and broke out again yesterday.
TA: has made a bullish Bottom Head&Shoulders.

http://www.crucell.nl
Crucell is a leading biotechnology company, develops biopharmaceuticals that are in tune with the human body, by making them 'as human as possible' (huMADE™). Crucell's focus is on human anti-body-based therapeutics for treatment of cancer, and inflammatory diseaes and on human vaccines for the prevention and treatment of influenza and other infectious diseases.
Furthermore, Crucell discovers unique drug targets on diseases cells.

Price $ 4.13, Volume yesterday: 80.8 k (in Amsterdam: 228 k).

Ok, I'm tossin my hat into the ring. My pick is CALVF. I have 50K shares of this baby and thinking of getting some more when the price drops again.

Current price is $0.269

Got this for an average price of $0.22

It's currently at a 20% gain.

Didn't mean to be callous :afraid: by not wishing Silver Streak the best of recoveries. I got so involved posting I forgot to wish him well.

I've been blessed with good health pretty near all my days. I certainly do hope the trend continues :nurse: Lord willin'.

The most recent tabulations are as follows:

With Silverstreak owning the top two pics, he is the winner by far at this point.

For the rest of us, there is some intense shuffling of positions going on.

Tumi is surprising me Golden Tiger,

Nice call, I did not think that one was ready to move. You made a heckuva call there.

Matter of fact, there are some hellacious gains being shown across the board for the short duration that this has been running. Everyone should be stoked.

As for ECU, it is moving with much higher to go yet. It will eventually hit the high 40's, before it will need some really good news to push it higher. As long as they don't do something stupid like shareholder dilution or ????

I offer my apologies for soiling up stock picking contest, which would have been completely in the green had I picked any mining stock, but no I had to get cute, as I was expecting a pull back in the PM stocks I looked else where and I’m out over a grand on this sinker. But GG and GLG are more than making up for this loss.

GoldenTiger

11-26-2003, 10:24 PM

Scorpio,

Tumi has surprised me too, but the listing in Germany really helped and the release of first drill hole. The other three is as good as the first one I have been told. The low number of shares and the amount of silver with a bonus of gold is what drew me to the stock.

The the only problem with ECU is I divided my money between ECU.V and EXN.V(I was thinking of selling but about that time Taylor started to promote stock & it has made small move up). ECU is winning the race by a good percentage.

What I love about CFTN is that the run up is not on Silver & Gold but ASAP, so it should have a long way to run.

Libertarian_Guard ,

soiling the contest, I do not think so! We have all had or have clunkers in the past, and most assuredly in the future.

You stepped out, you took a shot, big deal. As you said, your other holdings are kicking butt. This was only about percentage gain, not about quality at all.

I darned sure would not have picked ECU if we were going for quality stocks.
It's a flier, a bet on physical silver.

thank you gentlemen/gentleladies for your fine diligent research.

i am aware that this contest will terminate in 4 weeks or so. however, i will submit my recommendation and its reasoning by Sunday. (however if the stock does rise immensely today Friday... sigh ..lol )

it is not a gold, silver or gas/oil play but a diamond play. enough said.

but before i begin, is it acceptable to submit a diamond company?
If you pick the best performing stock - thats all that is required....... I have a great article on diamonds that may be of interest..

At this time, I would like to present Metalex Ventures (MTX - TSX Ventures Exchange). It's closing price on Dec 5 was $3.04 Cdn.

This particular diamond exploration company is under the leadership of Dr, Charles Fipke Finder of the Etaki Mine. The Etaki Mine went from 25 cents to over $60 in (I believe 18 months). Mr Fipke's name is the major selling point of this company. For example, very recently on Dec 1, (see nr below) MTX completed a $10 million financing that was oversubscribed and the final financing was over $12.3 million.

What is remarkable about this private placement, it was completed at $3.50 a share even though on (I believe Dec 17) there will be appox 8 million newly free floating (former private placement) shares that will enter the market. That private placement price was $.40Cdn. Think about it, a pp was oversubscribed and completed at $3.50 even though 8 million shares will enter the market (bought at $.40 a share) two and half weeks later.

Curently there are 21,760,888 shares outstanding-- all very tightly held!!! What will happen to the price of MTX on Dec 17th? No one knows, but still, the lure of Fipke's name and relentless ambition to succeed captivated the imagination and hopes of the new subscribers even at the risk of the $3.50 share price decreasing.

But what else is there that Fipke brought to whet the interests of the people?

The Dec 1 news release(see below) states: the indicator minerals are "...equivalent to diamond indicator minerals that grow with diamond."
DeBeers owns the nearby Victor pipe which has 30 million tonnes...and all 10 Renard pipes which combined might have 25-30 million tonnes. Those new results concerning the size of the target are astounding--> Reinterpretation of the data for a previously reported ground geophysical anomaly, by an outstanding specialist senior geophysicist, has indicated that it measures at least 700 x 300 metres instead of the 400 by 250 metes reported previously. The anomaly has not been closed off either to the north or to the east.

Even John Kaiser remarked (see below) that: If Peter Gregory's description of how the magnetic target sampling strategy spawned a focus shift to stalking non-magnetic targets is accurate, the entire Attawapiskat region is fair game for a new wave of diamond exploration. In other words, there is evidence for a new set of non-magnetic pipes within Attawapiskat field. This could be the key to unlocking the mystery of: how to find diamonds in Canada.

Finally to put things into an optimistic and grand perspective- Kaiser notes: Fipke wants to find the "Holy Grail" which is an economic diamondiferous kimberlite 400 meters by 400 meters. As mentioned earlier- repeating myself- a geophysical anomaly measured 700 x 300 meters! And this anomaly has not been closed off either to the north or the east. This qualified as Holy Grail size. Furthermore, when you consider that there are 7 more targets in these first 2 clusters!!! I am guessing there will be more clusters. Hypothetically, if he ends up with 15 pipes with an average of 100 million tonnes per pipe that would make this play 20 times the size of Ekati or Diavik...and Ekati shares topped out at $66. It has this explosive upside and yet it appears that Fipke knows what he is doing.

There is reason to think that Fipke will introduce explosive new information sometime prior to the Dec 17 release of new shares to counter the possibility of the share price decreasing. However, this is speculation. If this does happen- that is Fipke does prove that he found the Holy Grail- there will a fabulous increase in the share price. But as Dr Gregory wrote: Core drilling and sampling will be required to determine whether the anomaly reflects a diamond bearing kimberlite pipe.

Soon we shall know-- hopefully before Jan 1. < grin> If not, it was a pleasure to present this to this forum.

I think it will happen in any eventuality- it has the potentiality of the 4M's- mine, management and money. And of course - Fipke's name is the 4th M- marketing.

KELOWNA, BC, Dec 01, 2003 (Canada NewsWire via COMTEX) --
Metalex Ventures Ltd (MTX - TSX Ventures Exchange) ('Metalex'or the 'Company').
Metalex, a Canadian diamond exploration company, announced today the completion of a private placement by Dominick and Dominick of 1,636,857 flow-
through common shares at $3.50 per share and 2,150,901 common shares at $3.10 per share amounting to total gross proceeds of $12,396,793. Net proceeds, after deduction of agents'fees and other issue expenses will approximate $11,537,143. Broker warrants totaling 364,490 and exercisable at $3.25 will also be issued. These will terminate on May 26, 2005.
This financing will permit the Company to explore for, and evaluate, potentially commercial diamond bearing rocks in both the Attawapiskat and in other Canadian diamond projects; as well as participate in highly prospective diamond projects identified by Dr's Fipke and Gregory worldwide.
The Attawapiskat Project encompasses two Joint Ventures, the James Bay Joint Venture covering an area exceeding 6536 km2, and the Dumont Joint Venture which covers an area up to 416 km2. The Attawapiskat Project area straddles the Attawapiskat kimberlite field. This kimberlite field includes the Victor diamond deposit, owned by De Beers, and which is expected to start producing diamonds over a 12 year period commencing in 2007. Reserves for Victor are reported at 29Mt of ore containing 6.3 million carats of high quality diamonds.
Metalex has a 60% contributing interest in the James Bay Joint Venture. Kel-Ex has a 10% free carried interest distributed pro rata between Metalex and another 20% participant in the joint venture. Metalex holds 70% of the Kel-Ex right to earn a 90% interest in the Dumont Joint Venture, subject to a 7.78% free carried interest in favor of Kel-Ex. Big Red Diamond Company has asserted that it is entitled to a 20% interest in Kel-Ex's right with respect to the Dumont Joint Venture; Kel-Ex and Metalex deny that Big Red is entitled to any interest in the Dumont Joint Venture. Negotiations underway could possibly result in the Metalex entitlement being reduced to 50% of Kel-Ex's 90% right with respect to the Dumont Joint Venture.
Work carried out by Metalex has focussed principally on the follow up of fresh diamond indicator minerals discovered in 17 auger holes (D6 fan). To date more than 242 power auger holes, totaling 2384 metres have been drilled in this area, 477 samples collected and 323 samples analyzed. Results to date suggest that there are at least 5 separate sources for these indicator minerals. Some of the diamond indicator grains contain chemical compositions similar to those found in large diamonds from the Ekati Diamond Mine and in commercial kimberlite hosted diamond deposits elsewhere indicating that their source has potential to contain significant diamond grades. As these sources have not yet been located there can be no assurance that discovered deposits can be mined economically.
Power auger sampling being implemented in the Attawapiskat area generally consists of drilling a 10 cm diameter auger hole from surface to impenetrable material or 40 metres depth, whichever comes first. Each hole is mapped for lithology and a sample taken from each lithology. All samples collected at the auger site are placed in previously numbered double plastic bags and are sealed immediately after collection with a numbered security tag. This tag cannot be removed from the sample bag without destroying either the tag or the bag. The samples are shipped to the CF Mineral Research Ltd laboratory where both the sample number and the numbered security tag are reconciled with the field list. Samples are then processed in accordance with the security and processing procedures instituted by the CF Mineral Research Laboratory. These security procedures include restricting access to sample processing, picking and microprobing areas to the specific employees working in those areas. Analytical data from the microprobe is sent to a secure, password protected computing system. After computer manipulation, checking and classification, the data is sent electronically to Kel-Ex Development Ltd, the Project Operator. No part of the computing systems are connected to any telephone lines and cannot be hacked into by third parties. The Company is satisfied that the field procedures, security arrangements, processing procedures and internal checks result in secure and uncompromised data.
The CF Mineral Research Laboratory and Kel-Ex Development Ltd are companies owned by Dr Charles Fipke, the Chairman of the Company. Dr. Peter Gregory, the President of the Company, is an employee of Kel-Ex. Kel-Ex retains a carried interest in the properties explored by the Company and is the Operator of those exploration projects.
All exploration, including sampling, transportation and quality control in the field is supervised by Chad Ulansky, a professional geologist with more than 14 years experience. Interpretation and planning of exploration programs is carried out by Charles Fipke, a professional geologist with more than 30 years experience and discoverer of the Ekati Diamond Mine. Responsibility for corporate reporting rests with Dr Peter Gregory, a qualified person under National Instrument 43-101.
Reinterpretation of the data for a previously reported ground geophysical anomaly, by an outstanding specialist senior geophysicist, has indicated that it measures at least 700 x 300 metres instead of the 400 by 250 metes reported previously. The anomaly has not been closed off either to the north or to the east. Ten shallow power auger holes have been drilled previously in this anomaly and varying amounts of diamond indicator minerals have been recovered from nine holes at depths ranging from 3 to 16 metres. At one site a 10 kg sample, taken from a depth of 3 to 5 metres, contains 24 G10 garnets, 10 chrome diopsides, two group 1 eclogitic garnets and 4 olivines all with compositions equivalent to diamond indicator minerals that grow with diamond.
Whilst the Company is most encouraged by this discovery, core drilling and sampling will be required to determine whether the anomaly reflects a diamond bearing kimberlite pipe.
Dr. Peter Gregory,
President
=============
October 30, 2003 Excerted from John Kaiser Bottom Fishing Report
Evidence for a new set of non-magnetic pipes within Attawapiskat field
Metalex Ventures Ltd (MTX-V: $3.15) announced in the last hour of trading on October 30 just before its annual general meeting in Toronto that "ground geophysical orientation testing" has indicated that a pipe with a diameter of 150 metres is associated with the 7 metre intersection of kimberlite reported on October 23. Such a target has tonnage implications of 10-20 million tonnes to a depth of 300 metres. It is not evident what type of geophysical survey was used, but in all likelihood it involved a gradiometer gravity survey which measures relative differences in density. The kimberlite had been intersected beneath 5 metres of overburden by an auger-core rig Metalex was using to grid sample an area where an airborne magnetic geophysical survey had not detected any anomalies. In addition, a "similar geophysical target approximately 250 metres by 400 metres in size" had been detected in an area underlain by abundant indicator minerals. This target, if confirmed as a kimberlite, has tonnage implications in the 50-100 million tonne range, which are Holy Grail proportions. Metalex indicates that it plans to drill at least three holes spaced 100 metres apart into this new target, though it has not said anything about followup plans for the confirmed kimberlite. Presumably both these targets are associated with the five trains whose indicator minerals Chuck Fipke described in the October 23 new release as possessing "exceptional diamond inclusion compositions typically present in kimberlites with substantial diamond grades". But Fipke has not explicitly stated that either of these targets has indicator minerals with the said substantial grade potential, and in terms of conventional understanding of the types of indicator minerals described by Fipke, it is not obvious from the descriptions Fipke has made of the associated indicator minerals that these two targets are the Holy Grail that Fipke is stalking in the Attawapiskat region. In the latest release Fipke describes the second target's garnets as lherzolitic G10's, which means that the garnets are borderline G10 and not very sub-calcic, similar to the Victor pipe. Normally this does not generate high hopes, but the science behind diamond indicator mineral chemistry is currently in a state of revolution in which Fipke is heavily involved, and so we have to be very careful drawing negative conclusions from the absence of garnets or the presence of borderline G10 garnets. My gut feel is that while these targets will be diamondiferous pipes, they are not the
quarry Fipke is stalking. I suspect there is a lot more to come.

What is a fair and very important conclusion to draw is that a set of kimberlites exists within the Attawapiskat region whose discovery has eluded the earlier geophysics based exploration efforts of De Beers and others. Where the five trains mentioned by Fipke are relative to each other is not known, nor has the general location been revealed. An educated guess suggests that these trains are part of a broader dispersion fan that emanates from a hitherto unrecognized cluster somewhere north of the Victor pipe, but given Fipke's history of paranoid secrecy and penchant for misleading the competition, one has to be cautious about this conclusion. These targets could be anywhere within the 1-2 million acre Attawapiskat region that Fipke has filtered using his strategy of auger till sampling localized on anomalies generated by an airborne magnetic survey done on more detailed line spacing than utilized by De Beers, Spider/KWG and Canabrava/Navigator to discover the 19 known kimberlites in the region. The latest news release is very important because it blows away a dark cloud that has been hanging over the Attawapiskat diamond play, namely the possibility that Fipke has been chasing indicator minerals that emanate from small, dyke-like kimberlites which might be high grade but economically insignificant because of small tonnage implications. If Peter Gregory's description of how the magnetic target sampling strategy spawned a focus shift to stalking non-magnetic targets is accurate, the entire Attawapiskat region is fair game for a new wave of diamond exploration.

Well, the stock price has gone down considerably due to the profit taking from the free trading shares of october. i had no idea there was a release of 2 million shares back then. so because of that... the shorts came in and other scenarios ocurred as well.

but-- i still have about 2 weeks to go.--

However- quoting my friend-

There could also be news from Attawapiskat soon where Fipke has been very busy with auger and drill. There could be news
1. about the size of the big target. At last report it was 700 metres by 300 metres and open to the north and east.
2. about diamond counts from augering and/or drilling this target,and
3. about whether deep drilling has confirmed that this target is a kimberlite pipe. If this target is a diamondiferous kimberlite pipe of more than 700 by 300 metres in size it will be more than twice the size of all the Ekati or Diavik pipes put together...and Chuck has 6 more targets in the 2 clusters he has announced so far. The share price should soon reflect this news if it is all good!

All I can add is: The geologists are upbeat.

Also there are rumors abound that there will be a news release thursday or friday but is this the "REAL NEWS"?
