RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:Tidbit of infoBDOG -- yes I agree.
Hopefully over time we will find that NFG is about making money for ALL shareholders. I find it fascinating that this size potential is controlled by two main players + mgmt --> If ES wasn't one of the key participants I wouldn't be here. Kettle is too new to the mining scene but this will make or break his reputation. ES has always been known as a straight shooter.
Imagine putting $400-500M of personal funds into an exploration company -- ES has risk assessed this investment and believes it's going to be a winner. No one is in a position to take NFG away from them and accountants rarely make stupid mistakes.
Retail is just along for the ride and I expect a wild ride if/when they get the ability to assay cores fixed. What a PITA to have 35K of cores ready to go and no way to get them processed! Historical labs can't handle the volume and new technologies continue to be delayed (ie Chrysos).
The industry will get paralyzed if not fixed soon.............
