Pescod today& Don Coxe,Jim Rodgers,Billionaire SorPescod today-
We had mentioned previously that we think our next big
adventure might be with Amazon Mining and yesterday the
company announced a joint venture with Agrifirma Brazil
which attracted a lot of attention, because of who is on their
advisory board.
Names you would recognize like Investment Strategist,
Don Coxe, Jim Rogers—author of Adventure Capitalist and a
big money manager, as well as billionaire George Soros. An
interesting group, don’t you think?
So we ask former Sprott mining analyst Jed Richardson,
currently vice president corporate development of Amazon
to write us a few lines.
“We're happy to be announcing our agreement with Agrifirma,
it gives us an opportunity to test our product with soy
and corn, very important crops for Brazil. More importantly
Agrifirma will look into using ThermoPotash in developing
new land for agriculture. Only 15% of Brazil's potential arable
land has been developed for farming. That land will be
developed to feed a growing world population, its exciting to
think we are be developing a product that could be instrumental
in equipping Brazil to feed the world.
Over the next few months Amazon is going to continue to
work on agreements like today's Agrifirma announcement,
we want to test the product with a number of crops so that
even before we break ground on an operation we know what
this product can do and how it is best used.
We are building a mining company, but we are also building
a market for a new product.
What gets me excited is in the coming months we will
start to produce some drill results on our first resource and
a preliminary economic assessment that will show the potential
capital and operating costs. Right now our story is
really just a concept in the markets eye, with some real data
we can show investors some investable value.”
