The diamond play up here is gonna be huge...many REAL, LEGIT diamond companies are producing some interesting finds (Shore Gold, Kensington, Cogema, etc..
Don't get me wrong...I've made my profits off of CMKX and I'm still riding my free shares but, not counting anymore chickens just yet!! Things will happen irregardless of Urban.

i've been trying to get to the pr's from 2003 when UC first tryed the CIM or CMI thing, giveing out shares of one or the other. I know there was a link to a list of these but can't find that either. yahoo, msn, pink sheets, none go back that far. does anyone know which it was that was given out back then? was it CIM or CMI? and as they were reporting then wasn't the o/s at the time 500 million? they gave a 1 for 1 share dividend. it was early 2003 i think.

There's that "spinoff" word again from Schwab:
Spinoff A new, independent company created through selling or distributing new shares for an existing part of another company.

FYI: Schwab on the dividends: Dear xxxxx:
Thank you for your patience while we researched your inquiry.
I have spoken with our Reorganization department and the only information we have received so far is CMKX will be spinning off Casavant International Mining.

Further details relative to this project will be forthcoming in future press releases and at http://www.uscanadian.com/ and http://www.yellowriver.com/. Safe Harbor Stat
I called the number listed under Ameritrade for CMKX (CMKM)... Got this very irate gentleman named rob. He gets all kinds of calls for CMKX. He asked that we quit giving him calls. I explained that his number is under CMKX in Ameritrade... He says he knows... he keeps asking them to change it and they will not...
next Step was to call the 1St Global Tranfer agents... they are currently moving offices and are not answering the phones. (but got a message though)
I then called the toll free number for Melvin. I did not get anyone but left my name and number. Then ten minutes later I get a call back and it is Melvin. I did not ask him any questions pertaining to any PR's. But did ask when I could come take a look at the books... He told me that they did not have an office in Las Vegas that he knew of. He suggested that I call the tranfer Agent. He said the only office he knew of was at Mr Casavant's home.
I explained my interpretation of the Nevada State Law. I briefly outlined that according to the state regulation that there was some specific information I read as being entitled to. He suggested that I call the Stock transfer agent.
Once the Stock Transfer agent is in their new office spaces I will call and see if they have the information. If not I said I would call him back.
Take Care

"He told me that they did not have an office in Las Vegas that he knew of." ------------------------- WTF! The office is out of Casavants home? That doesn't sound yippee at all! Where is all this going...? I see ALOT of promo stuff to BUY, but nothing about diamonds or even searching, drilling or mining for the blasted rocks. This stock is really pissing me off.

as alot of spec-o-lation is saying nowadays, why go to all the trouble of a marketing campaign with a funny car, speed truck, drag bike and prepaid credit cards?
Wouldn't it have been easier/more cost effective to start the marketing after the final joint venturing has been put in place??

This is not new stuff but just a reminder to not get hopes too high. However, it may fly this time because we have Roger.
In 2003, the company moved from the OTC BB to the pink sheets and changed its symbol to CMKM. During 2003 Casavant Mining Kimberlite International acquired a company that was in the process of mining zinc. However, in order to maintain their focus on diamond exploration Casavant Mining Kimberlite International decided to "spinoff" the zinc division as a separate company. Casavant International Mining was formed and each shareholder of Casavant Mining Kimberlite International was issued a share of the new company for each share of Casavant Mining Kimberlite International that they owned. Originally, the spinoff company was going to merge with Mirador, Inc., a publicly traded company, to make the newly issued shares tradeable. However, plans for the merger have been put on hold indefinitely

LAS VEGAS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Sept. 19, 2003
Casavant Mining Kimberlite International (Pink Sheets:CMKM) The Board of Directors have approved the spin-out of the corporate zinc deposits at George Lake, Saskatchewan, its wholly owned subsidiary Casavant Mining International, Inc. (CMI).
Shareholders of record who hold CMKM stock through close of market on Friday, September 19, 2003 will receive one share of CMI stock for every share of CMKM stock that they hold through this date. The payable date for the CMI shares of stock will be Friday, October 3, 2003. CMKM shareholders of record at the time will receive one share in CMI stock for every share they hold and will continue to own their CMKM stock. This spin-out will enable CMKM to concentrate on diamond exploration and development at Fort a la Corne, Saskatchewan.
Urban Casavant shall remain as president during the interim until a suitable candidate has been selected to operate the zinc mining and exploration company. CMI has plans to launch a substantial drilling and exploration program at George Lake which is expected to start early 2004. At this time the zinc claims will remain an asset of the Company. CMI reserves the right to option the George Lake Claims out to develop the property as the location is favorable for mining and within approx. 60 miles of an existing smeltering plant.
Casavant Mining Zinc Claims Overview
The Company also has zinc claims that include the original George Lake zinc deposit (also known as Brakewell Lake). The George Lake area has had numerous diamond drilling, airborne electro magnetic surveying, geological, magnetometor, surficial geology and soil sample surveys conducted on these claims, from the late 1960's, to the early 1990's, after diamond drilling was completed in 1969 to 1970, an ore reserve calculation was released and recorded on Saskatchewan mineral deposit index #0663 of the Saskatchewan industry and resources website. The ore reserve was stated and estimated to be 5,000,000 tons of low grade reserves at 1% to 2.65% and 2,900,000 tons high grade reserves at 2% to 3.67%.
This information was taken from a third party from a mineral property report from the Saskatchewan industry resources website, therefore, it cannot be guaranteed that this information is, in fact, accurate and can be accessed by going to www.ir.gov.sk.ca (click) department data bases, (click) mineral resource data bases, (click) Saskatchewan mineral deposit index, (click) search the mineral deposit index, (enter) 0663 in smdi field and (enter) George Lake in location field and (press) submit. (http://www.ir.gov.sk.ca/dbsearch/MinDepositQuery/Default.asp?ID=0663)
There is no guarantee that drilling or further exploration will produce any economic benefit to the company or the shareholders of the company.

Here is some info from last year from the RB board. IMO, Arete posts honest and well researched DD.
By: arete 22 Aug 2003, 08:28 PM EDT Msg. 6070 of 516476 Jump to msg. # There is no zinc mine at Geroge Lake. I checked out Sask mining/mineral charts and there is one place at George Lake that has zinc deposits. I talked to the CEO of the current owner of those 3 claims and he faxed me technical data.
Those claims cover raw land that has been surveyed and drilled and yes there are zinc deposits down there. But there are no viable roads leading to the property thus everything has to be flown in to George Lake and then treked out to the property on trails. It will take millions to start a mining operation as well as several years.
By: arete 26 Aug 2003, 10:49 AM EDT Msg. 6116 of 516478 Jump to msg. # It seems to me the latest PR says 2 things. 1- all holding CMKM shares by 9/12 will receive a 100% payout on 9/29 in the 2/1 forward split. 2-all holding CMKM shares by 9/19 will receive a 100% payout on 10/23 of CMI shares (Zinc dividend)
Doesn't this amount to a 200% increase in current holdings? 100 shares now will increase to 300 by 10/3. We can call these the "Weimar Republic" shares. The value hasn't incresed, but the shares would have tripled.
Interesting background info:
1-Petro Plus (UCs old company) ended trading on 1/14/99 with Reverse split and a name change to 2-Northern Star Resources Inc. Highest pps= 1/16/99 @ .13 Lowest pps on 9/14/99 @ .01. and Another reverse split and name change on 3/9/00 to 3- Odaat Inc. Highest pps= 3/27/00 @ .95 Lowest pps= 12/6/02 @ .01 Current pps= .02 Until recently Odaat Inc. held all 3 zinc claims at George Lake. It currently holds 2.

You know what I find really ridiculous? A bunch of penny traders walking around at the drags with CMKX shirts on. What happened to race fans? If you ain't there to "really" enjoy DRAG RACING, stay home. We have plenty enough fans to go around without you. Need a party? Go to a bar. Notice the stock ticker graphic on Arend's car? Don't you people get it yet? It's a Vegas GAME. All a game. No diamonds people. Unless that E-bait tryst gave him enough worms to become little tiny diamond miners! Oh, wait, that was his CFO that had the worm farm gig, wasn't it?

Lanebro, Well, welcome aboard. The CMKX fans you see at the races are probably there to try to gain an audience with Mr. Casavant. When that fails, they wind up in the stands with their CMKX shirts on. Vegas game? I don't know. I'm not really a believer in this company but the rule of Vegas is "what happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas". This company is going out of its way to advertise itself and darn near everyone in America knows about them. They're definitely not doing anything quietly.

Word has it UC likes to hand out c-notes to his "buds" for dinner "on him" and what not. Better spent on the corporation, don't you think? It really smells of "tacky". I AM a race fan. I'm just checking him out, here and there. Scary what I've seen.
