Mine safety equipment to locate miners. Just announced a partnership. Some legislation is working to their benefit. Think they will do well over the coming year to year and a half.
New management has refocused the company a little and probably need a little bit of capital to help drive sales going forward in getting the product installed. There is significant demand.
Required for newly required mining safety plan as a supplier. Has doubled and it is difficult to know how much more it will gain. Zero earnings forecast.
Very unique underground communication technology for use in coalmines for locating miners. Recently announced partnership arrangements with Motorola (MOT-N). Also have arrangements with the above ground communication company.
Wireless communication communication safety system so a mine always knows where miners are. Some interesting opportunities in China. Coal mine safety is a huge issue. You need a timeframe of more than 1 or 2 years.
They have a system for underground communication in mines. Already being adopted into the massive market. The only company with a system that works. On the verge of become a core position in portfolio. The technology may be mandatory in all mines, which will result in a big move.
Great little company, with a system to keep track of miners. There’s a big safety push to implement this product in mines. Pretty good company. Would like to see more traction in terms of incremental contracts.
Basically a communication system for mines. There is legislation in the US that is pushing out the adoption of this technology. Getting a connection with China as well. Buys this one on weakness. Some analysts are showing $.10 of earnings within 2 years.
Likes its wireless technology. Used in coalmines for underground communication and location of emergency disasters. Need regulatory approval and stock has pulled back because of the wait on this. He expects approval late March or into April. Think the stock will then go to the next level.
Has been picking away at this one looking for more catalysts. Very volatile. If you have any thing like a 6 to 12 time frame there are great opportunities presenting themselves.
Uses a mesh network to figure out what is going on in a mine and to communicate with miners. US have brought in legislation and this company has a very good system. Currently working with a large number of mines in Virginia. Early stage,
