Use Of Proceeds
What ALL this money could be used for is most important.
This post may provide some answers as replies are invited.
I'll start by suggesting that FCU mgmt will be trying to patch up, pave over, some of
its mistteps, errors, overshadowing its ability to make itself
more attractive to others.
1) $75-$100 million going towards buying back the 80% of FUU it doesn't already own.
2) Buying properties around FCU's core holdings. Obviously this excludes Nexgen
because Nexgen is too big for FCU to swallow.
Any other ideas?
JMHO

There's no need to buy FUU. I can purchase FUU on my own if I think it's a good investment. That's not something FCU should be doing. I also don't want them to dilute my ownership by speculating on other properties. They should focus on what they have. Other ideas. They might use the funds to purchase physcial uranuium.

Cement paste backfilling has been used successfully throughout the mining community. This is NXE's proposal.

@ shrink - Regardless of what NXE plans to employ for its underground tailing management, the IRKS report is challenging its efficacy. the long-term risks posed to the environment and our People's health should untested underground tailings management facilities fail over time allowing release of radio-toxic elements;

Thing is, it is tested.Much safer than tailing ponds but more expensive to create. Me thinks this is about money. If cement paste backfilling is ruled unsafe, then you might as well kiss the entire mining sector good bye, because ponds aren't going to do it.

@ shrink - The tailings complaint seems like something of a red herring but it's being used as leverage to prevent two mills from being built. With respect to FCU and NXE the report boils down to one of those situations where the "ends justify the means." It only makes sense for all the parties to build only one mill with supporting infrastructure.

Uranium308, Your posting shows just how stupid you are. How much has FCU gone up in the last 6 months? How much has the whole sector benefitted from the Green push? Only a moron posts like you do.
