RE: RE: RE: AME/Ajax Front Page, Kamloops DailComparing apples to oranges IMO, in eg: Taseko / Prosperity and Ajax / Ame .
Taseko / Prosperity failed Bigtime to gain approval with First nations . Their original proposal involved
draining " fish lake " . I believe they have learned a very expensive lesson and are back at it, and
with a new proposal which does not involve draining " fish lake " and involves First nations approval .
Expensive lesson meaning, it will cost Taseko / Prosperity = 300 million dollars to revise the original
proposal . That said, Taseko / Prosperity could have taken the lead on how to do this procedure,
" correctly " , from the Ngd owned Afton Mine example proven, in Kamloops, B.C.
Afton Mine opens, next year, with no problems . ( locally - provincially - federally or First Nations people )
NGD kept First nations involved and very happy, NGD made the Kamloopsians, very happy, and
also the B.C. province was made happy - happy . And Ngd set the proven example that Taseko
could ? have followed ... ( because Ngd set the proven standard ) and here it comes ..... the first
time through .
That was the " apples " and has nothing at all, to do with " oranges " ( the Ajax / Ame application )
In fact, KGHM has their front man, living in Kamloops, B.C. with an office in the downtown area .
And, KGHM is not running away anywhere, from the fact they must meet local, provincial and federal
regulations. This shows clear intent to this investor, ( again their not running away ) to do everything
correctly, imho, the first time through . Over expectancy of a given timeline to complete the process, is
of no concern, to me .... After all premier Christy Clark is trying to speed this process up, by making it
simpler, I believe .... and it's all a public fact, so feel free to do the " dd " .
The express purpose of KGHM's front man in Kamloops, B.C. , his sole purpose, is to address any of
the local concerns, and I would imagine ? if necessary, the provincial or federal .
Kamloops wants the jobs that are offered, and with as little as an enviromental impact/footprint, as
possible ( who wouldn't ? ) and B.C. wants to keep the KGHM money in B.C. so, I believe that KGHM
will move time and space, itself, to supercede those federal requirements . KGHM has the money behind
them, and the desire to meet financially, any requirements, imo .
IMHO, as stated, and for my money invested, AME is currently, playing ball by the established rules in
all three levels of government, local, provincial, and federal . No complaints, yet, on my end .
This is indeed, comparing that of apples to oranges to compare that of Taseko / Prosperity and Ajax / Ame .
Taseko / Prosperity made expensive management error's, financially, in their original game plan.
Ajax / Ame is willing to make " all the players " satisfied, on all the levels of government intervention, and I'll
bet ( like the proven NGD role model ) the First Nations, as well .... and here it comes, the First Time
through .
IMHO, the circumstance's between these two mines, have nothing at all , to do with one another . Their
management teams are not on the same page, in the decision making department . Their different mine's
but do share this one similarity , the desire the same end game = win .
That's my bit / opinion ...for this week, re : Ame
Have a good week-end !
