Since May 6, 2009, there have not been any communications concerning Duluth between JTVIO and any entity it previously approached on Duluth's behalf.  As of JTVIR's June 24, 2009 suspension of research coverage, there have been no meetings between Duluth and any potential candidate JTVIO introduced to Duluth and no site visits to Duluth's Minnesota mineral property.
