RE:e-mail from DaleProbably Dale does not know the time frame either, additional delay is normal in mining sector as I know....
The following is not specific to DNG, but rather mining company in general:
Time frame: take what they said + one full year, this may give you a more accurate estimate
And always remember mining is a big hole on the round, it sucks and many times it will turn out to be an abyss...
If you are aleady a shareholder, the shares you purchased will subject to market daily fluctuation and even market shock while you wait and hope the share price to recover. Many people and fund manager choose devidend stock, as they will get paid while waiting, which I think is a better choice.
Be aware that Warren Buffet does not have a single mining company in his portfolio, need to think about the reason.... or you think you are a smarter guy...?
