This is what I consider a bad sign:

A friend of mine called me today who knows I dabble in the markets. He has never made a stock purchase in his 30 years of living.

He said that he got a tip on a penny stock, CMKX. This tip was from someone who supposedly has made big dollars on the market over the years.

Anyway, I thought that was a bad sign.

Unchanged on 426,864,937 shares traded today.

I know nothing about penny stocks, so this may be a rounded number.

good luck with the promotion. the odds of this company ever getting a diamond mine in this area is probably close to zero.

but that does not matter as long as it moves on hype or hope.

never invested in stocks that are fractions of a cent. however what I look for in stocks below $5 in the mining industry are:

1. small amount of shares. to many shares are sloppy and hard for the stock to move. fewer shares the better.

2. managment; either good history in mining. or in general promotions.

3. does the property or company have more than one story they can tell. for instance knew someone who had a property and he found different metals. for instant maybe a company has a gold project and a coal,uranium project. Sometimes the market is more receptive to a certain story; ie. gold, coal, ect.
tell the story the market (investors) want to hear.

4. can they raise or have cash, if not it does not really matter if the project looks good. The stock is dead.

have a much longer list :) good luck with the promotion. most mining stocks go to zero, so you have to invest in a collection of them over time.

thanks

that forum MJ provided a link to has a great deal of posts. from true believers not to many shorts in that group.

some are shocked if they lose their money? the website is highly promotional, that is not necessarily bad. however the chances of getting even close to a diamond mine is remote.

believe there are three in Cdn. and another from Shore will happen in a few years.

the website stated
80% of Saskatchewans' kimberlite pipes are diamondiferous

I can find you properties with kimberlite pipes, hundreds of them, none of them have diamonds that can be mined.

good luck,
thanks

CMKM Diamonds Provides Corporate Update

CMKM Diamonds Provides Corporate Update

LAS VEGAS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Aug. 28, 2006--CMKM Diamonds Inc. wishes to update its loyal and patient shareholder base on current actions of the company and plans for the future.

"I wish to personally thank our shareholders for enduring this extremely long quiet period that has had to take place in order for our Company to comply with regulatory issues and make plans for the company to continue moving forward," stated Urban Casavant.

It should be noted that Mr. Casavant has been suffering from serious health related issues and is no longer able to carry on the day to day related activities of the company. Mr. Casavant plans to remain as a Director of the Company and intends to announce new management within the next two weeks. Along with this announcement, new management will be instructed to re-establish an office within the next 30-45 days.

On June 6, 2006, the Task Force was officially dissolved with a recommendation to the Company to interplead the 45 million share Entourage certificate in United States District Court in an effort to complete the identifying process of the bona fide shareholders and distribute the shares thereafter. The Task Force was created as an independent third party to give an unbiased opinion as to who the bona fide stockholders of CMKM are.

Mr. Casavant added, "I would also like to personally thank the Task Force for all of their hard work. Mr. Maheu, Mr. Stoecklein and Mr. Frizzell have done an exceptional job and the company thanks them for their commitment to accuracy in reporting, due diligence and their firm resolve and pursuit of what has always been the best interests of the shareholders of the Company."

Recently-retained legal counsel for CMKM, John T. Moran III of the Law Offices of Moran & Associates, a law firm whose residence is situated in the Great State of Nevada, will now proceed via the federal court system and, specifically, initiation of action in interpleader and for purpose of accounting and earmarking certificates to those shareholders presenting viable equity in the Company. As part of the Task Force's recommendation, the federal courts have subpoena power which, if deemed appropriate, could ultimately be used to gain cooperation from brokers that have allegedly-refused to comply with the Company and Task Force's efforts to date. This interpleader action must take place so that the Company can move forward.

The Company intends on communicating all related information deemed material to the shareholders in a timely manner and anticipates a busy schedule related to the matters contained in this press release.

The Company wishes to communicate to its shareholders that the message boards are not the place to find official news from the Company. The Company will only disseminate information to its shareholders through the use of an official press release.

Safe Harbor Statement:

This news release contains certain "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of Section 27a of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21e of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Although the Company believes the expectations reflected in such forward-looking statements are reasonable, it can provide no assurance that actual results will meet or exceed such expectations.

CMKM Diamonds Wishes to Announce New Management
Tuesday September 19, 1:47 pm ET


LAS VEGAS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Sept. 19, 2006--CMKM Diamonds Inc. has named a shareholder, Kevin West, as the new Interim Chief Executive Officer of the Company.
Mr. West has worked for the past 18 months in an effort to help determine those shareholders that are holding viable equity in the Company. First, through a brokerage statement fax-in campaign initiated by attorney Bill Frizzell and the CMKX Owners Group, and then the most recent cert pull conducted on behalf of the now-dissolved CMKM Task Force. The knowledge gained during this process will prove invaluable in helping the Company to move forward.

"I would like to welcome Mr. West as an Interim Officer of the Company," stated a Director and Chairman of the Board, Urban Casavant.

"Mr. Casavant has asked me to help him with the day-to-day operations of the Company. The details before us are going to require a bit of time and complete focus to make sure that they are done correctly," stated Mr. West.

The Company wants to again remind its shareholders not to rely on any information that has not been disseminated through the use of an official press release from the Company.

Safe Harbor Statement:

This news release contains certain "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of Section 27a of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21e of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

Greetings CMKX Shareholders,

This past couple of weeks has been agonizing for many of us around this office. I have been unable to speak with you because of the uncertainty we had about Kevin Wests hiring. I have been waiting for the press release that came out today. Kevin has been hired by CMKM Diamonds, Inc. Kevin told us a couple of weeks ago that he was discussing employment with Urban and other individuals at the company. At the time these discussions began, we mutually agreed that he would not work out of this office until there was a final agreement on his employment with CMKM Diamonds, Inc. Thus, we have not seen Kevin for a couple of weeks. In general terms he has called to tell us his progress relative to this employment change but we are not privy to the details of his hiring.

In my opinion, this is a good day for the shareholders of CMKX stock. I have had the opportunity to work with Kevin for the last 18 months. He is knowledgeable and most importantly he is a dedicated advocate for the shareholder. He is a fast learner and a self starter. He was generally the first to be at work and one of the last to leave. His work at this office went far beyond CMKX matters. He can help the company in many of its challenges.

Hiring Kevin tells me the company is dead serious about the matters that were covered in the last press release of the company. It is clear evidence to me that an interpleader will be filed. It is an indication to me that efforts are being made by the company to have its stock trade again. How long it will take is anyones guess, but I believe Kevin will move as quickly as he is allowed to move.

There will be some who will criticize Kevins hiring. Some will say this is a stall tactic or another token gesture to appease the shareholder group we have put together. This would be quite an error in judgment on the part of CMKM management if Kevin were hired for such reasons. Kevin and I spent hours discussing many things before Kevin finalized his decision to work for the company. I can promise you that Urban knew how Kevin felt about the plight of the shareholders, before an agreement was reached.

When you work with someone on a daily basis for 18 months, you have a pretty good feel about someones ability to handle pressure situations. Kevin gave this job offer a lot of thought before accepting this position. He has every intention of helping the company and the shareholders at the same time.

Kevin may not be Bill Gates or Warren Buffett, but he has a unique ability to calmly analyze troublesome situations and apply common sense solutions. His calm but firm demeanor has helped resolve many disputes. He is not easily swayed once he believes in a course of action. I do not know all the problems facing CMKX, but we all know the obvious ones. Kevin will figure out a way to begin delivering regular information to you. It may take Kevin a while, but I expect you will soon have a phone number to call and a live person you can contact with your questions. Anything Kevin approves in a press release in the future, I will believe until proven otherwise. Why would I make such a statement in light of the last couple of years of CMKX problems? Because Kevin is a man of character and morally sound. He simply has never lived a lifestyle that we often see when corporate greed overtakes the obligations to work in the best interests of the shareholders.

I am hopeful this is the first press release of many to come in the next few months. I do not expect all of you to jump with joy simply because we believe this is good news. I would suggest however that you give Kevin some time to get a handle on the problems. You can then make your own decisions on his ability to get this company back on course. I have been fielding calls lately from various shareholders telling me of their desire to begin legal proceedings against the company. I will not encourage you nor discourage you from pursuing litigation. You make your own decision in that regard. I plan to cooperate in any way I can with Kevin in hopes that the company will take the necessary steps to build this company back.

Kevin knows the shareholders are a group that has endured much frustration and on occasions misdirection. He knows the only way he will get your full support is by positive things occurring under his watch. I hope Urban and any one else that is directing the company will give responsibility and support to Kevin. This is one update that I have really enjoyed writing.



Onward,

Bill
