Your interesting debate with Ram Rao and Ken Benes on the relative value/leverage of South African versus Canadian gold juniors/explorers is pertinent and useful. However the point about private placements and similar arrangements was well made.

Canadian residents have advantages over US residents in trading Canadian listed juniors, particularly in electronic trading with minimal commissions and in receiving tax advantages attached to the public issuance of 'flow-through shares." US residents perforce must pay real broker's commissions, and then watch in dismay as 'flow-through' share issues for which they do not qualify significantly increase shares outstanding, diluting the value of shares in hand.
