De Beers vs Shore Gold/Cameco/UEM De Beers has been in Canada for about thirty years. If you want to beat them, buy and promote canadian product. The demand for Canadian diamonds is growing very quickly around the world. No "blood" on them. Any body here remember Mountain Province (mpv)? The Oppenheimer empire got control of this Canadian company some time ago and susequently put the project in "park" and it remained there until the SGF/KRT merger. A short time later MPV/De Beers Canada submited mining and constuction permits for the project De Beers put in park. Long story short: When De Beers sees a loss of control in anything they can't control, they abuse the court system to slow things down or attempt to get what the want, entitled to it or not. It is not the property thats in dispute, its the marketing rights they know the will never have on the "rough" this massive body will produce. The "sight holders" that have had to buy rough from De Beers are very excited about new partnerships outside the "DTC". SGF has very strong backing here. This is still a strong by at prices well above this level.
