-- Rick Rule of Sprott Asset Management, and Louis Boulanger, a financial adviser in New Zealand and a prominent gold advocate there.
Rule also will be speaking at the Mines and Money Australia conference, along with many fund managers.
Your secretary/treasurer is much looking forward to spreading the word in a great and gold-producing country that inconvenient geography has caused us to neglect.
