Interesting reads about BHP etc
That is why I am so bullish on CMK, even with the delays etc. There is a shortage of met coal PERIOD! We have 400 million tons of RECOVERABLE met coal. That would run most steel mills for 50 years!! It has been good no one has made a pass at us in these shatty markets. I would hate to see us go at $4 when we should really be at bought out at $12 plus. I hope we get the rail spur done with our latest infusion of cash. The continuous miners and support equipment cost $11 million each so that eats up money quick. To think we gave up Lossan for 4 machines, makes my blood curdle, but hopefully this brings us to full production so we can get some finalization on some contracts.
It just amazes me some steel company doesnt buy us out before BHP or Xastra does and then they have to pay trough the nose for their coal. Patience and accumulation. JMHO

Good points Cooper, but a major knows the resource is there and they know how to mine better than CMK. To put in a 20 k rail spur with a bed already there is peanuts to them, probably some of their yard tracks are longer than that. The permits are in place, they have a port to ship from, why pay 100s of millions more for the production to be brought up, seems like a bad strategy for a major.JMO

Hope not because I am not willing to give up my shares for $4, may of us purchased mid-late last year and this would not be a pay-out I would endorse.......I would vote it down hard.
