Adequate Disclosure?So....Rocmec has filed and has all the patents under an exclusive arrangement?????
NO But I bet Rocmec Paid For it I.R should come forward and enlighten the investors here and clarify matters. From an older MD&A it is pretty clear patents are issued to Rocmec International. But then read the patent release below. I don't know about anyone else here but I think proper disclosure is missing and and the press release is somewhat misleading. Just using the name Rocmec (see the bold underline) Could imply RocmecMining Inc or Rocmec International. Big difference for shareholders as RMI has no interest in Rocmec International.
