[GEORGE BUSH]

Well, I made my first call to our IR person, Andy Hill just now. I didn't expect to get through, and didn't the first three times I tried,but the fourth try the phone rang and he actually answered.

We only talked for about 5 minutes or so, but I was very impressed with his friendliness and patience. I started out by telling him I was a shareholder and I was "skeered" and wanted him to make me feel better. He chuckled and asked my how many shares and how much did I pay, so I told him. And then I asked him about why Ameritrade wasn't taking my buy orders anymore and he asked me if I had talked to them. Fortunately, I had just got off the phone with them, and I told him what they said to me, which was that it wasn't their decision to not accept buy orders. It was the MM's decision and if they weren't making a market for the stock, they couldn't do anything about it.

Andy started laughing out loud when I told him that and then he said that he had spoken to Urban for 30 minutes on Friday and that Urban had made up a little jingle when they were joking around....it goes:

"If you're in, you win.
If you're in doubt, get out."

I thought it was funny and then Andy got serious and said that when all is over, we would probably never know the whole story of what was going on behind the scenes, that it was big. And that everything was being done for the good of the shareholders and that if I could just have a little more faith, it would be rewarded, even though he knew it was very frustrating. I asked him "Can we beat them?" and he said "YES!!!"

So, even though I didn't get any real information, I DID come away feeling MUCH better, and I got the feeling that we are in a HUGE battle with some big boys and that WE CAN WIN and WE WILL WIN.

Lastly, Andy cautioned me not to believe ANYTHING posted on any internet boards, that I should only believe things that come straight from the company.

LONG AND STRONG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

If I was Tramp you would believe me!! Anyway, I rarely post but don't let that disqualify this post.

I called Andy, my first time ever ( speed dial 10 times to get through), and he was pleasant and seemed to be straight shooter. And yes that little phrase / jingle about being " in you win /doubt -get out" came out of his mouth w/ no prompting...point being that the earlier post referencing this jingle got trashed and quite frankley everything in that post sounded similar to the converstion I had w/ Andy.

Obviously he didn't tell me anything new but he did emphasize the newspaper article where the CMKX attorney was quoted.......mainly the viability of the company! If you haven't read the newspaper article then do....his advice.

FWIW

SEC turns attention to LV diamond firm
By Kevin Rademacher

LAS VEGAS SUN

Las Vegas-based CMKM Diamonds Inc., which claims to be involved in diamond exploration in the Canadian province of Saskatchewan, has run afoul of the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Just two weeks after the SEC temporarily halted trading of the company's shares, the commission ordered an administrative proceeding and hearing into CMKM's failure to comply with reporting requirements.

In its order issued last week, the SEC claims that CMKM -- which was known as Casavant Mining Kimberlite International Inc. until February 2004 and trades on the pink sheets under the symbol CMKX -- has not filed a required annual report since May 9, 2002, or a quarterly since November 2002.

"In view of the allegations made by the Division of Enforcement, the commission deems it necessary and appropriate for the protection of investors that a public administrative proceeding be instituted," the order said.

The order also said that such a hearing will "afford the respondent an opportunity to establish any defenses to such allegations."

The possible outcome could include a 12-month suspension of CMKM's securities or an outright revocation of its securities registration.

Attorneys for the SEC could not be reached for comment.

The SEC order said that in 2003 CMKM filed documents with the commission indicating that it was terminating its registration -- thus ending its reporting responsibilities. Such a move is allowed for companies with fewer than 300 stockholders.

Earlier this year, however, the company filed new documents with the SEC indicating that it had 698 shareholders when it made the original 2003 filing seeking a release from reporting obligations.

CMKM has 20 days to respond to the order, and an administrative law judge has been instructed by the commission to issue an initial decision no later than 120 days from the March 16 date of the order.

Donald Stoecklein, an attorney representing CMKM, said the hearing notice is the logical step after the company itself reported discrepancies in previous filings.

"The company, more or less, expected this," he said.

On Feb. 11, the company announced a "corporate strategy plan designed to dramatically and comprehensively transform (CMKM's) internal corporate governance." Stoecklein said that process is proceeding.

He also indicated that the hearing notice is unrelated to the previous suspension of trading.

"It has nothing to do -- in our knowledge -- to do with that," Stoecklein said.

The SEC's order suspending trading said: "Questions have been raised about the adequacy of publicly available information concerning, among other things, CMKM Diamonds' assets and liabilities, mining and other business activities, share structure and stock issuances, and corporate management."

Shares of the company returned to trading last week, but Stoecklein declined to comment on the circumstances surrounding that matter.

He did say, however, that the CMKM is a viable company actively conducting mining exploration.

"You will see in the future some filings and information the company puts out to confirm that," Stoecklein said.

Earlier this month CMKM issued a statement expressing surprise over the SEC suspension.

"The SEC did not provide us with any notice of the temporary trading halt," CMKM Chief Executive Urban Casavant said in a statement. "This was an unwanted surprise, especially since our counsel has had an ongoing dialog with the SEC."

In the same statement, CMKM said it had nearly 704 billion shares outstanding, held by 2,032 stockholders as of March 1.

That statement also requested that investors and stockholders "please refrain from contacting the company, the SEC, the (National Association of Securities Dealers), the transfer agent and/or (the company's counsel) Stoecklein Law Group to allow them to focus on completing the tasks at hand."

In a subsequent filing, the company backed off that stance.

"This request was not meant to discourage anyone from contacting the SEC, NASD or any other regulatory body with regards to any matter. The company encourages its stockholders to comply with all regulatory bodies and if necessary call or contact them at their sole discretion," the company said.
