RE: PREMIER RED LAKE PROPERTY UPDATE Should Ewan have been able to purchase shares recently given the recent news release?
Yes, Goldcorp is the operator. Goldcorp controls the rate of exploration activity.....Goldcorp controls the release of all news - Ewan likely wasn't in receipt of the news until hours before the release.
Because Goldcorp is a Sr Producer, it can be argued that news of a discovery is not necessarily a 'material change' in the co's affairs, and said news can be kept under wraps......indefinately. One of the draw-backs to dealing with the likes of G. I suspect Ewan has slightly more leverage over G that most Jr CEO's though.
