RE:Shareholders it’s time to vote I agree with this sentiment. AMK management compensation has always been excessive to the extreme. Especially now that they are essentially doing nothing more than copy and paste Tudor news releases, and slapping their own name on top. As far as I know, they are doing no work on any other properties.
For this, the CEO receives a half million dollars, and other execs also receive hundreds of thousands! IMO, it is essentially shareholder robbery. Even with the carried interest in Treaty Creek, shareholders are diluted by 10% every year for nothing.
This is why if you want the carried interest, I prefer Teuton shares. TUO still holds the .98% NSR on Goldstorm, and retains dozens of properties in the Golden Triangle w varying interests or NSRs. Properties, which with they still carry out work to make them attractive for JV partners as they did with Treaty Creek. Plus, the compensation packages and shareholder dilution are far more reasonable IMO.
For longer (talking years, not day trading) term shareholders, this makes a clear difference in share performance. Pull up a comparison chart of the companies to illustrate this. Here are some aproximate performance examples:
One Year: AMK + 7%, TUO + 31%
Five Year: AMK +350%, TUO +1,000%
Ten Year: AMK +190%, TUO + 300%
I occassionally purchase AMK, but only for short term arbitrage vs the other Treaty Creek partners when valuations stray too far from the 60/20/20. At most I would hold a couple of months. Overall, I like TUO's carried interest, NSR, and other properties as my primary TC holding.

The company urges all shareholders to vote by proxy in advance, please do so as it is very important and it’s the only time of the year you can impact some management’s decisions. If you don’t vote then the default answer is yes (for) as per management’s recommendations.
Interesting information found in the Circular;

Not bad for a part-time job as they both have similar or equivalent functions in those other companies;
Affinity Metals Corp.
Stinger Resources Inc.
Newterra Resources Inc.
Also very important, the voting question #4 is related to the Stock Option Plan which allow the management to grant/issue up to 10% of the shares outstanding annually as Stock Options. This may indirectly generate a share dilution of up to 10% every year. Don’t forget the default answer is yes (for).
The AMK free ride until the production notice is given by Tudor is not that free for us shareholders as it may costing us up to 10% per year.
Shares structure from AMK site as of December/01/2023;
