The SmallCap MarketWatch believes that junior mining and exploration companies are going to offer investors the greatest upside opportunities when it comes to taking advantage of bull market in gold.. The challenge is to find ideas that are not just looking for home runs. As much as shareholders love million ounce discoveries the likelihood of success is very small and the risks are enormous. Mexoro Minerals (MXOM) has a major asset in its Cieneguita Property. Maybe it was great insight or perhaps dumb luck that Mexoro COO Mario Ayub was able to acquire Cieneguita after Glamis Gold gave up on the property.

The company believes there are 350,000 ounces of gold there. Initial estimates are that the property should produce approximately 1,500 ounces per month at a total expected mining cost of $230 per ounce. Such production would give net cash flow from operations of approximately $5,000,000 per year at current gold prices.

Today, the entire company is worth just a little bit over $22.5 million dollars. Publicly traded gold companies currently sport a valuation of 17.7 times earnings. If Mexoro were to see $5,000,000 per year in net cash flow from Cieneguita that would mean future exploration of other properties could be self supported. However, let’s say for the sake of argument not one dollar is reinvested and the net cash flow is just booked as profits. At 17.7 times earnings that market cap could be $88.5 million or over $4 dollars a share.

For junior gold exploration and mining companies growth is critical, and if Mexoro were to produce that kind of cash flow we expect almost all of it to be reinvested in other projects to build shareholder value. If everything goes as planned the Cieneguita mine will be constructed very soon with production to follow quickly after the mine is established. The current retracement in Mexoro shares represent a great opportunity for those that have been watching the stock waiting for the right time.

We brought up the name UpSNAP (UPSN) and for good reason. Things got off to a great start with the stock charging up from $2.43 per share to an interim high of $3.20 good for a gain of over 31% within a week. Since then the company has had to reinvent itself twice to survive.

What initially attracted us to UpSNAP was its interesting business model. No one likes to pay fees for making “411″ (directory calls) on their mobile phones because it is expensive. If users can text the name of the business or person they were looking for, UpSNAP would respond with the search query and relevant phone number. In the event the search result was a business as well as advertiser on UpSNAP, the user could reply via text messaging and UpSNAP would call the phone user via Voice Over IP (VOIP) with the business on the other line. Everything sounded revolutionary but there were a few problems.

First, lots of advertisers had to sign on and secondly the product had to work. After testing UpSNAP numerously we found the mobile search function to be “buggy” and just not very dependable. It would be no surprise if potential advertisers had the same experience and decided it was just not worth the trouble. It’s quite a shame because UpSNAP was in this space early and before companies like Google Mobile and 4INFO dominated the market. This just goes to show that ideas without proper execution equates to very little shareholder value.

In the past two months shares of Mexoro reached an interim high of $1.53 putting us up over 19.5%. Unfortunately, the recent broad market pull back has taken down just about every stock and Mexoro was not spared. In just the past thirteen trading sessions Mexoro has seen a retracement of over 31% on pretty decent volume. We think this presents a very good opportunity for those who have been sitting on the sidelines watching.

Shares of Mexoro closed Wednesday at $1.05 per share which is roughly 18% less than where it was when we first profiled the company. With 21 million shares outstanding, the market cap is $22.5 million. Mexoro raised $3 million dollars in a private placement last year to explore its properties in the Sierra Madre gold belt in the Chihuahua region. Originally we believed that this financing was creating an overhang on the stock but so far this has not been the case.

From April 19 till July 24th, there HAS NOT been a day where Mexoro closed under $1.00. It has broken below this level during the trading day only to see investors come in and support the stock. For a microcap stock, its been quite a feat that over 12 million shares have traded during the past 68 trading days. The 6 million shares at $0.50 from the $3 million financing have probably been sold or investors are holding for the long term. The strength in Mexoro’s stock is testament to investors’ belief in the company. This current retracement is either the start of a new leg down or just a great buying opportunity. Based on the chart and how the fundamentals are shaping up we believe the latter to be the case.

Unicorp Inc. (UCPI)

Wednesday, June 27th, 2007

The fundamental progress of the company has been absolutely stellar. What was once a startup oil and gas company is now starting to come into its own. Unicorp reported revenue from oil and gas operations of $924,498 for 2006, an increase of 282% versus 2005 revenue of $242k. On March 19, management declared that based upon the current projects to which Unicorp is participating, the company is projecting revenue for fiscal 2007 in excess of $4 million and gross profit from oil and gas operations excluding depletion in excess of $3 million.

That would mean in a matter of two years management will have increased sales over sixteen fold. To top it off we are just amazed at the company’s recent $7,000,000 funding announced on May 21st (press release). This new cash infusion coupled with the previous $7.8 million invested into Unicorp over the past year and a half means that approximately $14.8 million dollars will have been invested in the company. Raising the money in the first place was a monumental task but after looking at SEC Filings and seeing the specific terms of the financing we were even more amazed.

ESOL INTERNATIONAL Corp.

Wednesday, May 9th, 2007

ESOL INTERNATIONAL (ESIT:PK)
Web Site: www.esolinternational.com
Current Estimated Market Capitalization: $368,999,000
Approximate Shares Outstanding: 45,000,000
Authorized Shares: 200,000,000
Estimated Float: 2,757,761
(Source: Pinksheets.com as of 5-3-2007)

CORPORATE OVERVIEW

Esol International, Inc. (ESIT) incorporated in Nevada in 2002, is now the parent company of two wholly-owned subsidiaries. The first is J.G. Capital Inc. (JGC) and the other wholly-owned subsidiary is International Country Club Corp. (ICCC) which has developed a Membership Program for people seeking an affordable international country club experience.

Together, the two subsidiary companies have created and developed an incredible international resort investment opportunity for stock and real estate investors alike. What we’ll focus on is the opportunity available to stock investors through the ESIT shares.

ESIT divisions will thrive off of each other in a very symbiotic way. Dynamic growth will be achieved by the ICCC Membership Division, and also through ICCC’s resort real estate development and sales, as well as financing and investment activities through J.G. Capital. Though Esol is the parent company, J.G. Capital is the financial arm of the triumvirate, and has provided the capital necessary to acquire the 4,500 acre property now being developed by ICCC as the Monarch Cancun Resort.

MARKET OPPORTUNITY

ICCC operates two of the three business divisions parented by Esol International focused on achieving explosive growth. The first is the International Country Club Membership Program, a “first of its kind” service that provides more privileges and benefits than one could ever get from joining a single country club, for far less money. For an initiation fee of $2,500 and only $175 per month, the ICCC Membership Program provides each member with full benefits and privileges in their own prestigious private country club in Cancun, Mexico under the Monarch brand name - The Monarch Cancun Resort. The Membership Program also provides access to over 3,500 private country clubs around the world through its reciprocation agreements with these clubs. The club privileges aren’t limited to golf, but also include racquet and tennis clubs, yachting, equestrian, and world class spas around the world.

ICCC has targeted and developed the Program to be affordable worldwide for people averaging $60,000 in income per year or more. ICCC believes this price point to be particularly important to attract “baby boomers” and retirees as well as any one else looking for luxury and relaxation at an affordable price. ICCC’s goal is to attract 1,000,000 international members over the next five years, a number that would generate over $1 billion in sales to the Company.
isam.png
In the U.S. market alone, the 70,000,000+ “baby boomer” generation is now starting to hit their retirement years. For the majority of these people, joining an expensive country club doesn’t make sense. Many exclusive private clubs cost tens of thousands of dollars in upfront fees in addition to expensive monthly dues. These folks are literally priced out of the market, although ICCC research has shown that many would still like to enjoy the country club lifestyle from time to time. That’s what makes the ICCC Membership Program so attractive. It’s all about affordable luxury.

That leads us directly into the second segment of ICCC’s business, the real estate development division. The Monarch Cancun Resort is in the center of the 4,500 acre property that has been subdivided into an 8,000 residential lot destination community. The Monarch Cancun Resort Community is an affordable gated and secured luxury, second home, retirement or investment opportunity that is becoming available to millions of people in the U.S. and internationally.

ICCC has set the price for the pre-sell lots at $99,900, which is about 30-40% below market comparables in the area. Once the first phase is sold out, the price of each lot will be raised to a minimum of $115,000.

ICCC has created a plan whereby a home buyer can purchase a three bedroom hacienda for a total cost under $200,000. This property is only about twenty minutes from the heart of Cancun, the international airport, and the private Monarch Beach Club. The pricing at Monarch Resort is around $600,000 less than most of the homes in Cancun and is a mere fraction of the cost of prime Cancun beachfront property, yet just minutes away.

ICCC plans to establish the Monarch brand as the affordable resort alternative and as a result, many influential international real estate investors have keen eyes focused on the project. As sales of the affordable Monarch Cancun project begin to roll out, ICCC has plans to establish Monarch Resorts and Communities in other similar destination location spots around the globe.

INVESTMENT CONSIDERATIONS

While ICCC builds out its Membership Program towards a goal of achieving $1 billion in sales over the next five years, JGC is also poised to benefit by providing financing and assistance to private Mexican companies looking to go public on an international exchange. In ESIT’s real estate division a sell out of the 8,000 lots in the Monarch Cancun Project would project over $500,000,000 in profits alone. The profits from new homes built on the 8,000 lots, combined with the potential for other new Monarch Communities, lends to a bright future for ESIT shareholders.

ESIT plans to achieve significant growth from the vast, virtually untapped, affordable, high destination, resort community market. This opportunity was recognized by one of the world’s largest real estate firms, RE/MAX, who will market the opportunity through 6,600 offices and 120,000 sales professionals worldwide.

There are currently under 50,000,000 shares of stock outstanding in ESIT, according to their recent un-audited financial statement. The Company had nearly $90,000,000 in assets, about $3,700,000 in short term notes, and no long term debt. We will be the first to tell you that this is extremely rare for a company trading in the U.S. on the Pink Sheets. But that is also the real opportunity for early investors. Stocks in good companies have a tendency to go up and that’s exactly what ESIT has done.

A year ago, ESIT moved from about $4 per share to the $6 level where it held for the past six months. On the basis of the RE/MAX agreement and other news, ESIT broke out of a six month base and spurted to a recent high of $8.20. On a fully-diluted basis, an $8 share price translates into a $400,000,000 market capitalization.

The future looks extremely bright both for the Company and for those who decide to enter the stock here. The ICCC Membership Program has the potential to generate upwards of $1 billion in revenue alone in the next few years, while its real estate division could also chip in close to $1 billion in revenue. On the back end, JGC has the opportunity to provide hundreds of millions of dollars of profits by assisting private companies in going public.

As the company continues to execute its growth plan and its vision of creating an affordable luxury resort community is achieved, the market capitalization of the company should expand. Much will depend on the rate at which the company gains sales traction with both the Membership Program and sales of the Monarch Cancun Community development. Successful near term results could easily enable Esol International’s market cap to double from current levels.

It should be pointed out that ESIT is making plans and believes it is qualified financially for listing on a U. S. national exchange. According to management, there are estimated to be less than 2,800,000 shares in the trading float. With a strong balance sheet and as news about the company spreads, long-term investors should feel comfortable tucking away shares at current levels.

CONCLUSION

Esol International Inc. represents an excellent buying opportunity for investors to participate in the significant growth potential of international destination real estate. Successful execution of their business plan could easily transform the company into a multi-billion dollar international real estate and investment conglomerate.

OTC Pick for the Day

Friday, January 26th, 2007

Gottaplay Interactive (GTAP), Inc. is rated one of the top ten video game rental services according to Top Ten Reviews. They are working hard to live up to their motto: “The Only Place to Play.” The Company features free home delivery and unlimited access to one of the largest gaming libraries available online. There are no due dates and no late fees. Members receive titles in 1-5 days and can play as long as they like. If they like a title, they can also purchase it if they so choose.

GTAP utilizes their own proprietary Game Distribution Software that contains an algorithm to accurately forecast levels of purchases and inventory. Distribution is achieved through a network of eight distribution centers linked to the GDS system. This enables the Company to optimize efficiencies in order fulfillment, inventory forecasting, procurement, inventory control, billing, and customer service. Customers even have the option of receiving text message confirmation that their order has been shipped.

GTAP uses their proprietary GDS system to create a custom interface for each subscriber to effectively merchandise their inventory and accurately predict subscriber preferences. Combined with a scalable, low-cost business model, this enables the Company to maximize revenue potential and minimize costs.

MARKET OPPORTUNITY

GTAP is already a leading online game rental subscription service providing a comprehensive library of about 3,500 titles to an existing base of subscribers at a cost of $20.95 per month. The Company has developed a strategy that is aimed at generating an explosive increase in subscriber growth over the next 12-24 months. The demand for video game rentals is as strong as it has ever been.

According to the NPD Group, while dollar sales were down slightly, total industry unit sales were up 4 percent over the same period the previous year. U.S. retail sales of video games (including portable and console hardware, software and accessories) reached more than $9.9 billion in 2004 - a decline of less than one percent when compared to $10 billion in the previous year.

Sales remained strong, thanks in large part to the console software, portable game software and portable game hardware categories, which saw dollar sales percentage increases of 7 percent, 11 percent and 10 percent, respectively. For the first time ever, sales of portable software titles broke the $1 billion mark. Total software sales also continued to set new records, with sales exceeding $6.2 billion, an increase of 8 percent in overall sales when compared to $5.8 billion in 2003.

Industry experts agree the video game industry has shown no signs of slowing down. No other entertainment industry has posted the sustained growth over the last decade as has been generated by the video game sector. Given the technological advances that are here now, all signs point to unprecedented growth and record sales over the next few years. GTAP has invested substantial resources to establish strong ties with various game developers and distribution providers to stay ahead of the curve.

As GTAP aggregates subscribers, their ability to pinpoint subscriber preferences should improve. This will enable greater operational efficiencies which in turn, should enable the company to lower costs. The OTC Digest believes GTAP has the potential to increase their profit margins as their subscriber base and other revenue streams accelerate. This creates a powerful opportunity to generate great profit growth and long-term success for the company and its shareholders. Management indicates holding approximately 21 Million Shares of the stock currently outstanding and appears very motivated to achieve positive results.

KEY MANAGEMENT

John P. Gorst - Chairman, CEO is a co-founder of GTAP and has directed all development and business efforts since November 2003. Mr. Gorst has over 17 years experience in founding entrepreneurial technology ventures, specifically in the development of software and business data services.

Prior to joining the Company, his experience included serving as CEO and Board Chairman of Insynq, Inc. a publicly traded application service provider. He was Vice President & General Manager for Interactive Information Systems Corp. and also operated a training/IS consulting business in conjunction with Nynex Business Centers of New York.

Mr. Gorst graduated at the top of his class as an Electronic Design Engineer from one of the top technology trade schools in Arizona. Mr. Gorst was also awarded a medal of honor for business leadership in 2001 and in 2006 from the National Republican Congress.

Asra Rasheed - President and COO has created several successful businesses in the multimedia marketplace. Ms. Rasheed was Director of Multimedia at Koyo Graphics where she managed large web development projects for clients such as Warner Brothers, Sanyo, and Sony. Ms. Rasheed also managed the development and growth of the online DVD rental and sales website for the largest distributor of Southeast Asian movies.

Prior to that, Ms. Rasheed founded NextRental.com, one of the first online video game rental companies and also served as Vice President of Business Development for Luminex Lighting.

Ms. Rasheed holds a BA in Finance from The School of Business & Economics at California State University, Fullerton, CA.

CONCLUSION

Gottaplay Interactive, Inc. GTAP has an excellent opportunity to achieve dynamic subscriber growth over the next several years. The Company has invested substantial resources to position itself among the nation’s top video game rental sites. It is a competitive business and senior management has spent a considerable amount of time “in the trenches” developing their proprietary software system, distribution channels and corporate partnerships.

As a result of their commitment to Customer Service, the company is building its reputation as one of the best sites for renting video games online. As the Company expands their services into the broadband and mobile phone arenas, additional revenue opportunities will present themselves. It appears GTAP is well-positioned to achieve significant revenue growth over the next 12-24 months.

BTX Holdings, Inc. (OTCBB: BTXO) is engaged in the development of new strategies to utilize existing biomass waste for the production of alternative fuel and energy sources. The company is dedicated to finding innovative ways to help alleviate both the problem of waste disposal, as well as the increasingly contentious and thorny issue of America’s dependence on fossil fuels. Current methods of alternative fuel production depend upon costly and time-consuming processes, but BTX Holdings’ technology extracts specific components that will be more efficiently utilized in the processes that convert the feedstock (raw fuel) into the fuel end product, reducing the time and cost of fuel production.

Market News and Highlights

Built-in Supply: According to company estimates, the citrus industry generates more than 3 million tons of waste per year. This biomass waste is typically disposed of by dumping into landfills or by incineration. Unlike the raw materials like corn or sugarcane presently utilized by most alternative energy producers, this waste requires no additional production time and is available at a fraction of the cost, presenting substantial reductions in production costs.
Cutting-Edge Technology: BTX Holdings, through its subsidiary BioTex Corporation, utilizes three primary technologies, all of which it has either secured or is in the final negotiation stages of securing the global rights and/or patents. BTX has already reached an agreement in principle with Dexion International to acquire the worldwide rights to its patent application for Hypercritical Separation Technology (HST), a technology that allows for the separation of various substances such as sugar syrup, citrus oils like terpinen, linalole, myrcen, etc., and pectin pomace that can be viably employed in various applications like ethanol production.
Booming Market: With the recent volatility in oil prices, alternative energy has become a hot item. The total global oil and gas consumption is 127.8 million barrels per day, or 1,480 barrels per second (Source: OPEC.org). To respond to increasing demand levels that cannot be sustainably met by traditional fossil fuels, renewable sources of energy such as ethanol appear to be the logical choice. The market has begun to recognize the viability of these energy sources, and the worldwide ethanol industry is estimated to grow at a 30% annual growth rate through 2010 (Source: RNCOS). As this industry expands, the need for efficient and cost-effective sources of material are expected to grow as well.
Waste Reduction: BTX also utilizes the impressive BioReduction technology to substantially reduce biomass waste in terms of weight and volume. Currently, waste disposal often requires expensive solutions. Many waste producers pay as much as $85/ton, and there are new initiatives in New York that propose fixing the price at more than $125/ton. The BioReduction technology is capable of reducing these costs by more than 50%, providing a strong potential recurring revenue for the company.
