Gordon Bogden (others) and Royal Bold: Bkgd Check
George Bogden, background in banking and mergers & acquisitions; Shawn Howarth, background in banking and mergers & acquisitions; Jasper Bertisen straddles both Alloycorp and RCF (RCF also specializes in mergers & acquisitions). Alloycorp talks about diversifying into new alloy metal projects in the future. Now, realistically, how are they going to fund new projects when their present one seems challenging enough? Yes, Mark Smith leads Largo, Niocorp and Alloycorp. But Alloycorp absorbing two relatively bigger giants does not appear realistic...more likely the other way. Not going to speculate too much, though...at 0.05, I ain't going anywhere...let's just see what happens...
On other note: Gordon Bogden sits on Royalty Gold. They provide financing to under financed companies and then collect a royalty. In fact, they are financing (or have financed) Thompson Creek and Seabridge. Thus far, they have only financed gold, silver, and copper, but who knows about expanding into moly in the future. They did finance Penasquito and I personally made a tenfold profit on that baby...would be nice to see those days again.
Generally, I steer away from the banker loaded projects, and lean toward the geologist loaded companies. Who knows? This may be one exception to the rule.
