RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:Minto closes

RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:Minto closesMy biggest takeaway from Minto is yet another single asset company trying to go it alone, and failing. Not failing to protect the environment in this case, but financially.

In everything I've read, Yukon maintains the mine is stable, just unexpectedly short of tailings capacity for now. Not clear why they can't just use money from the $75m already in security, but separate issue.

Minto is short on: the royalty payment of $1.5m, and the additional security of what...$15-20m? something in that ballpark?

All I know is if I were an enterprising, opportunistic mining firm.....
