RE:RE:Question for LouGM, I agree, any movement at all in the ROF would be a good sign.
With respect to your question about percentages, I look at it this way. A fifty percent deal with KWG sounds good, but any group that might be looking for partnerships will be looking at the big picture, not just at an arbitrary number. What would fifty percent of KWG be valued at? And what additional benefits would accrue?
What happens if five percent of Noront, plus opportunities for jobs in a working mining operation, is worth just as much as fifty percent of KWG and a handful of jobs on a railroad?
The big picture is what matters. I'd rather own 1% of Amazon than 100% of a local bookstore.
Ideally, both companies survive and thrive, and the indigenous groups of the region benefit by working with both companies.
In the meantime, I continue to wait patiently.
Incidentally, while I'm not holding my breath, there is some sort of meeting in Sault Ste. Marie on Thursday, possibly to announce some sort of combined federal and provincial support for Algoma and/or the Ontario steel industry. That might indirectly or directly involve Noront. One can dream.
