Despite the bullish sentiment, concerns about geopolitical risks in Peru and fluctuations in the market over the short-term were mentioned. Several analysts appreciate the company's strategic moves in Arizona and its ability to expand production and extend mine life, while cautioning potential investors to be aware of the cyclical nature of commodities and recent price gains that could see a pullback.

BUY
A copper/zinc play. Not a mature company as yet and could still be considered undervalued.
COMMENT
Has been looking at this recently. About 60% copper and 40% zinc. Both metals have done well but he is a little nervous about copper prices. It is only 3.5 X next year's cash flow and looks very cheap.
BUY
Trading at 6 X current earnings and 4 X forward earnings. Value investors would definitely buy something like this. Feels that copper and zinc commodities will continue going up. Could be a takeover target.
BUY
Stock has done very well because zinc has gone up. At the current zinc price, the stock is selling at about 3/3.5 X earnings, so it is very cheap providing zinc prices stay high.. High quality, low-cost.
HOLD
Showing production growth. Short-term caution: with the US slowdown, it may be difficult for the next couple of months for these stocks to move aggressively higher. Doesn't feel we are at the end of the resource cycle yet.
BUY
Zinc is a very attractive metal. Numbers will be good next quarter. Throwing off an incredible amount of cash flow.
BUY
Their last quarter was pretty good but the stock came off $1. 2 of their mines were closed for the quarter. A very legitimate takeout candidate.
PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick June 22/06. Up 22%.) A very exciting company.
BUY
Looks fantastic in this sector. The profit growth is nothing short of spectacular. The ROE level is impressive.
WEAK BUY
Looking at this one, but it looks a little expensive in terms of the relative junior. The price is up because metal prices are relatively high. If you buy, be prepared to average down if you get caught.
BUY
With all the acquisitions of major mining companies, the only 2 left will be Alcan (AL-T) and Teck Cominco (TCK.B-T). Investors, portfolio managers, etc will be starting to look at intermediates such as this.
BUY
This, along with a couple of other intermediates, could be up for grabs.
BUY
Commodity prices are going to remain high and zinc is one of his favourites.
HOLD
Likes the company, but prefers others. If you own continue to hold for the next little while. Watch commodity prices very closely and when you see them rolling over, head for the door.
DON'T BUY
Just sold recently as it was one of the best leverage to plays on zinc and feels that zinc is being driven by a lot of speculation. This company has a higher cost of production than a lot of the competition.
