Opawica, Low Risk

Something has changed in the last month in the resource sector.
For some reason junior mining companies have been lining up to
advertise on 321gold. Maybe passing $1100 gold on the way up
has made believers out of companies that have been sitting on
their wallets for the last 18 months. We have added a dozen advertisers
in a month.
I try to keep up with what our advertisers are doing and frankly
it's difficult when we are adding them every two days. One new
advertiser, Opawica (OPW-V) announced drill results yesterday.
When I saw the
announcement, [pdf] I went to their site. What I saw was
remarkable. This is a low risk stock for certain.
The present market cap as of Friday is a tiny $6 million dollars
with 55 million shares selling for $.11. For that you get 452,000
ounces of gold and 118.7 million pounds of copper. That means
you can buy gold for about $12 an ounce. That seems pretty cheap
to me. And you are getting over 2 pounds of copper worth $3.50
a pound per share. $7 worth of copper per $.11 a share stock
seems really cheap.
But that wasn't what rocked me the most. In February Opawica
did a deal on a project with a company called Upper Canada Gold.
OPW took 11.74 million shares of UCC in exchange for the property.
Just for fun I tried to figure out how much the 11.74 million
shares of UCC were worth. As of Friday last, those shares held
by OPW were worth $5.2 million.
So here's the math; for $11.00 you can buy 100 shares of Opawica
giving you almost eight tenths of an ounce of gold worth about
$939 and $715 worth of copper. Or if you consider OPW selling
all their shares in UCC at Friday's price, the entire company
is valued at under $800,000.
By the way, the drill results were good and they will be releasing
drill results once a week for the next six weeks. They are on
hole four of a minimum 6-hole 3600-meter drill program. Look
for more good news.
We are biased. We own shares and OPW is an advertiser. Please
do your own due diligence.
