Further, Mr. Ollquist said, "Although our primary focus over approximately the last six months has been on aggressively pursuing the opportunities on the gold projects, we have not reduced our commitment to coal.  We are in the process of documenting the extension of the concessions for the coal properties currently in our portfolio, seeking additional concessions, and we are actively pursuing coal trading transactions."
