Well you gave them good support for quite a while and were
fair to the other moly plays even though not in them.
Have to give you credit for that.

AUA has done a fine job advancing the project IMO. Have
nothing against them. Just think that huge capex will not be
forthcoming for any open pit moly as the industry itself does not
believe the price will justify it. The offtake is a possible way around
that if an agreement surfaces.

The small hi-grade moly guys could make a quick buck if they
hustle IMO. But the ROK Hatch report talks 30M capex for the
500T/d mine plan.

UNB looks about ready to produce but recent moly price drop
is cutting their margin.

GPXM was digging their way around a problem area in the old decline
last I heard. But mgmt that loaned the capex has very steep terms
for repayment IMO.

Roxmark needs spring weather to start the decline and mebbe
4-5 mo and small cash to do same. Their 200T/d mill is ready.

Like EC says, small mining ain't easy.
