Very risky...
I've been following this stock for a long time. I like it a lot, but don't own any because of the political situation in the Congo and the amount of risk involved. They have had numerous contract disputes, and problems over ownership of certain properties, which doesn't help it. It has properties all over the world, and lots of cash, but the congo ventures are the most important.
The revolt against Kabila could be very bad. If he loses power, they will most likely lose their contracts there, and it's bak to the drawing board. Another problem is that it trades on Toronto.
It would be great if they could get listed on one of the US exchanges. There is a ton of risk involved in this company, and that holds the stock back. But it has been doing good things and the managment seems fairly well run.

I'm personally going to wait it out, I think that eventually things will start working out for them.
The Congo sitiation will continue to have a huge effect on the company...

Good luck,
