RE:JDN FYI....
Chris,
I have to agree with the gist of what you say but do note the following:
1. Torrey Hills has never really brought anything to the table that I can remember.
2. The website has been awful since late 2011 as T2 has pointed out several times. I've have raised this issue persistently / consistently with management. Someone should lose their job on that issue.
3. Your comment re: Pinetree and Sprott bailing because of lack of confidence in management is conjecture. Re: Pinetree, as has been pointed out by many they bailed on a lot of what could be considered high quality juniors not just AGG. IMO only they bailed for strategic reasons. You choose to believe otherwise so we disagree on that point. Re: Sprott, do you know that they've bailed for sure??? We know they reduced their position over time. I know they were supposed to meet with Sprott last week but never heard whether they did or not. As for Sprott or Pinetree have street cred??? Depends who you talk to as all these guys have had the shiite kicked out of them badly which is a reflection of the industry in general.
AGG management definitely has a major issue with their IR/PR communications strategy and has had a problem for a long time. Funds move in and out of investments for there own strategic reasons and neither you nor I know for sure what triggers their decision making so to say it's lack of confidence in AGG management is conjecture on your part. I'm not saying you're wrong but you may not be right and with Pinetree I think your wrong.
Personally I've still got my eye on Kobada. I've stated this before too many times now. AGG's management has made mistakes but in the big picture of things, the project is moving forward. In the current POG environment I still like my odds with Kobada better than any other gold junior I follow ar present. The only other junior I really liked was Papillon and it was taken out by BTO for almost $100 per oz in the ground. IMO Kobada has value as well. Sooner or later the market will wake up to that fact which is why I hold and will continue to buy down here when I can and frankly in the overall scheme of things being a couple of months or even 6 months late on a FS completion happens in this business to others not just AGG.
FYI I don't think RBX ever had a full FS and they got their mining permit. There are ways to game the system a bit.
