Philip:

It is not that simple. The original mine closed down
at prices of $60 / stu, which is about where we are at
right now. Getting the new technology going requires
a substantial capital investment by itself, so that the
plan would be, in stages:a) restart the mine and generate
cash flow (mine should last 4 years); b)make plans to
ramp up the MacTung deposit to get it into production (
bi capital investment); and somewhere along the way
c)implement the new technology.

Keep in mind that restarting the mine would not be
very costly, and NTC might be able to do this with some
financing help. The rest of it will probably require a
major's assistance.

Probably, and this is my guess, NTC would be taken out
by a big brother before we get to c).

I too have been a shareholder for years, and am quite
pleased that so far, I won't have to add this one to
my wall-paper collection.

A little more patience is in order. Wait until we see
tungsten prices rise further. I wouldn't be surprised
to get this stock north of .50 at least by the end of this
year.

Regards

Dan
