   The flaky ones do the best on the way up. I remember it WAS the “house of pain” on the way down

   I have the total amateur’s impression that it might have super geology etc and (w/o looking it up) I think sponsorship (Sprott if I remember correctly).

   I do not think any of us north of the Rio Grande have any reason to disdain Mexican doings as any dirtier than our own (my opinion), and some entities from the north of the Mexican border can be given to significant organized (indeed rather official, longstanding) organized violence. However some Mexican locales are especially given to violent gangs that do things like hijack bullion. Also local people can have extreme legitimate grievances about behavior from gringos from the past. Therefore I think if silver weren’t dicey enough, mines in Mexico can be worth caution.

   On the other hand, it is sometimes said that some of the local drug lords (I write not of the Big Pharma types, just the informal local types) in Mexico invest in mines alongside people like us and protect their investments. At any rate, it is often good to know which mines are located where, and what the social ecology is before investing much of one’s wad. Hard to find good intell though.

   Personally at the moment I’m sticking mainly with AXU.

     Insightful comments Karl… I agree w/ them/. BTW my description using the word flaky was not intended to convey illicit management or inferior resource, just way down the latter of investment grade or familiarity. It could actually end up a barn burner
