Stock price when the opinion was issued
Not a producing company. They have two assets in Canada and have given up on one. They would have to spend $7 Billion. They have a partner that is willing to build the mine with them, but they need higher gold prices. It would be the biggest gold mine in the world. It is not the right project for the current gold environment.
Has had a really, really good move in the short term. If you think the gold price is going up 2 years from now, you will be very happy if you bought it today. 3 or 6 months from now you will be somewhat less happy. He owns it because he likes the optionality of the higher gold and copper prices. It is going to be a very, very volatile stock.
