Thanks Rico;
Following is from Tod C. per his request:
<<<<hris, thanks for forwarding Blitz RB post. Eventhough. Blitz and others have provided an understanding of the fair market value of the reserves, there are a few things that must be pointed out.
1) Blitz gave fair market value on the coal and coal bed methane reserves on the 2600 acres only. Stagg will provide available oil and/or natural gas, and other resources available for exploitation. The Stagg reports will be ongoing. The land has been prioritized initially and will be re-prioritized when reports come in. The most profitable properties (those that will bring revenue the fastest) will be exploited first.
2) The calculations I had done and posted on SI were for the 2600 acres and extrapolation on the 8000 acres. My calculations did not include oil, natural gas, or other resources. MTEI will exploit all resources within the letter of the law. MTEI has more land now and in the process of acquiring properties and companies outside of West Virginia. The rumored Texas deal is potentially huge and could make WV a much smaller piece of the pie.
3) Eric Deaver (bless you) has continually shown the significant natural gas reserves in WV and specifically the counties in which MTEI has property.
4) After talking with Jack briefly last week, MTEI is receiving deeds ]daily and my best guestimate is that MTEI now has more than 10600 acres in WV and is planning on acquiring as much as possible while prices are low.
5) Bob Ulrich (bless you) has indicated the cost savings of MTEI's stated methods of recovering the resources. From my conversations with Jack and Winston (the grease out of the ground guy), MTEI will have considerable savings based on these new technologies. Combine that with the extremely low G&A, and MTEI will be more profitable than any of the "larger" O&G companies that MTEI keeps getting compared to. Let's make sure others are comparing apples to apples when making company comparisons.
6) Jack, Winston, and Quentin Moore all have excellent reputations for finding reserves. Contractors and joint venture partners are willing to make deals with MTEI to be a part of the profits, even working on the come where the contractor covers most drilling expenses for a cut of the profit. Think about that scenario and how it can add income toMTEI much faster than if MTEI was directly in charge of ALL thedrilling/pumping on ALL the properties. Remember, there's only so much manpower available at the MTEI corporate offices right now.
7) I can't stress enough what a coupe for MTEI getting Richard is. Both Jack and Winston were giddy when talking about Richard.
8) The addition of an in house IR person will free several hours of Jack's time from investor phone calls. Now he can focus on generating profits.
9) Jack, Winston, and Quentin are creating something HUGE and would not put their life, reputation, and energies on the line if they weren't dead serious about creating tremendous profits from their endeavor. Each has a stellar reputation in the O&G industry that opens many doors for MTEI.
10) For all those that worry about the future profitability of MTEI: Jack and Winston did not put everything on the line to lose money. They've been in the business long enough to know EXACTLY what it takes to generate profits. They are EXTREMELY smart O&G guys and any kind of negative speculation about the future MTEI is absurd. MTEI will reward shareholders.
11) MTEI has no debt as land was paid for out of the restricted shares. Jack adds laughingly, "Cash flow is not a problem."
I did not invest in MTEI based on a newsletter. I've talked with Jack, Winston, and Quentin and many others that are familiar with the industry. I believe these people and their reputations more than any stock newsletter, paid shill, or person who posts hundreds of negative posts on a stock they don't own (geez, get a life).
I am Long and Strong on MTEI and sse it as an undervalued gem!!!!!
Have a profitable day, Tod>>>>
