RE: Private Company Totally agree with you.. What with regulatory - staff salaries - dual offices - and what must be sizeable lawyers fees if they are still dealing with RC and CA & + apparently still doing groundmag, sampling and mappingwork in the field they must be spending in excess of $200 000/month. on a 100 000 a month loan (which we are still going to have to pay back somehow...).. HOW (AND WHY) THE HLL are they doing it? I'd like to suggest to Dr. Scheepers and Mr. Mengi that they go private - but that shareholders still retain the % (mine would be like 0.1% lol!) in the private company .... we can always list again late if the market ever recovers from the DEEP DARK HOLE that it is sinking into. Still lost more way more $$ on Newmont than this one.... sheesh...
