Pretium Resources (PVG-T)

He has been in and out of it over the years. The project is built and in operation. It always takes time for these large projects to work right. It takes a year plus. There is an update in April. He hopes it works out. If they fail it will set the industry back. He is on the sidelines for now.

Has great confidence in the CEO whom he considers a friend. They started a mine in B.C. and delivered a good first quarter, then a poor second one. Be patient. It will take four quarters to see how things work out. Right now, it's way
oversold.

One of the greatest recent gold mines in the last year or 2. They have solved all the problems on the West Coast and they are in production. An excellent buy for someone. (Analysts’ price target is $19.00.)

(A Top Pick April 28/16. Up 27%.) Building an incredibly rich grade gold mine in BC. The findings are spotty, and it could be tricky geology. In a strong gold price market, it is extremely attractive. Thinks it will get taken out because it has a substantial asset and is very close to having it in production.

A first-class company. Very quickly they’ll be boring gold. His suspicion is that like most mines, when they turn it on, it won’t necessarily perform to expectations. A very high quality deposit and is led by a mining legend, Bob Quartermain, who is had 4 previous starts and been successful every time.

The Bruce/Jack project north of Stewart BC. In their final stages of construction, with 13 km left to go on the powerline. This will be a very interesting mine to follow. The geology is complex because it has a high-grade nature to it, and is a little nuggetty. If this works, it will become one of Canada’s important gold mines.

A lot of people outside still don’t know if the head grade they are proposing in the feasibility study, is actually what is going to come up. That is one reason why the asset, head grade of 50 g, has not been taken over by anybody, and had to be funded by private equities because other companies are still uncertain if the grade is going to be real. That might take a while.

He is a founding shareholder. He is one of the bulls. They are over budget with respect to their mineral deposit because they are ahead of schedule. Many people did not understand this budget miss was a response to opportunity. This kind of deposit delivers itself in the mining. There has been a cloud over the stock because the gold is highly dispersed and it is a tricky deposit.

They went from exploration and development to production later this year. They will have enough money to get through development. If they generate the production they predict it could be an attractive area for some time for exploration. These guys will get to production and the question is if it will exceed expectations. You can get in on the ground floor.

A really interesting gold deposit in BC. Extremely high grade and an extremely large resource. They are building the mine at the moment, which is typically at the point where he does not want to be an investor. When they start up the mine late next year, you are going to have the event where you get to see whether or not the geology matches up with the block model. This has a phenomenon where you have a very, very high grade in very, very small areas, so how do you estimate what is there with the limited amount of information you get when drilling with long core holes.

(Market Call Minute.) (Didn’t give a comment.)

He has held it for a long time. This week it had fabulous grades. It will be into production towards the end of next year.
