The small mine focus in northern Ontario is not of interest to him. Everything that can go wrong with a big mine can go wrong with a small mine but a small mine can never make you money.
This is looking very, very poor. Had its attempt to go up but didn't meet expectations and dropped from early 2011. A very bad stock to own right now and he can see it going down to below $0.10 at some point in the next 6 months.
Has a number of producing gold mines around Timmins. New management team have done a stellar job of refocusing and getting assets running in the last couple of years. Have been meeting their guidance.
Gold producer in Timmins Ontario. Have 3 small mines and combined have about 90,000 ounces of gold production. The key is to grow that production from somebody that has adjoining properties. Stock is hanging in nicely here.
Likes this. Small producing gold company with 3 mines in the Timmins area. Produces about 80,000 ounces per year. Low cash costs of under $1000. If they can continue building out each of their 3 mines with gold prices going over $1300 an ounce, it will be a decent cash flow generating machine.
When gold was at about $1200 an ounce, it was on the margins of being profitable. Likes the company. Has a good balance sheet. Management seems good. This one can certainly profit with the price of gold going up. (See Top Picks.)
He wouldn’t buy right now. There is a takeover offer on it from Kirkland Gold (KGI-T), but it is a share offer so you don’t know what price you are going to get. Thinks it will still go up a little bit from here, but it depends on the price of gold. He prefers cash offers.
