You right,
I'm strained to see the officials newsreleases of VG.
VG and Lakeshore will give a good up in the stock quote.
You have my fullest trust.

Vedron unveils golden vision
Two mines will employ dozens
Michael Peeling
The Daily Press
A junior mining company plans on opening two new mines in the South
Porcupine area, but first shared the details of the underground operations
with the public Wednesday.
Vedron Gold Inc. turned a ballroom into an information forum to address any
concerns about its Timmins-based mines on the cusp of going into production.
"In my experience, there are two ways to go when opening a new mine:
Confrontation or consultation," said Gerry McDonald, Vedron's operations
manager for both mines. "I prefer to go for consultation."
The Davidson Tisdale mine is scheduled to go into production in the fall of
2007, while the smaller Fuller mine is slated to start up in early 2008.
No one at the meeting seemed to have concerns about the Davidson Tisdale
mine because it is located a few miles north of South Porcupine, but the
Fuller mine is situated just northeast of Cook Road and Gold Mine Road.
The Fuller mine, which is anticipated to have a production rate of 600 tons
of gold ore per day over about four-and-a-half years, will operate 10 hours
a day, seven days a week.
McDonald proposed the model used by the Buffalo Ankerite mine, which entails
bi-weekly meetings to address public problems with the mine.
B.H. Martin Consultants' Rodney Doran, who is working with Vedron on both
mines, said that the Fuller mine will only involve small blasting with
minimal vibrations to allay the fears of nearby residents.
McDonald later added the mine would set off one small blast per day at the
end of mine hours.
Vedron will send all of the ore rock from both mines to be crushed and
milled at the Bell Creek mine owned by Lakeshore Gold.
McDonald said Fuller will employ roughly 68 contractors and 76 contractors
at Davidson Tisdale, which will operate under similar parameters to Fuller,
but produce around 1,000 tons per day for four years.
Vedron has opted to hire contractors for the life spans of the mines because
they are so short.
"The life of the mines doesn't justify us hiring a whole crew just to lay
them off in three years' time," McDonald said. "We'll consider hiring a crew
if the resources are still there in a few years."
In response to public concern about truck noise, McDonald explained that all
of the ore shipped to Bell Creek should be completed within operating hours.
A noise-reduction berm made of waste rock will be constructed around the
Fuller mine site. McDonald said he can empathize with people living in the
area because he once had a mining company drilling 200 metres below his
former home in Cobalt.
"Walk a mile in my shoes," McDonald said. "I've been there."

We expect to be reporing drill results from the two drills on a regular
basis starting later this summer.
We should have all the necessary permissions for mining in 45 days, but we
will have to wait to learn if the government wishes any further changes.
Our relationships with other miners in Timmins are in good condition.
