...i can recall as a child running through the old sheds with the security guard far behind, on the now Xstrata property,,and swimming in the INCO tailing's pond ( Garson Pond ) ,whipping the muck from the bottom at each other. Small Town people, may have their flash light up their Azz, but they support the community.Talk is now that a shut down will happen a month before the contract, at which time all the young guys with big houses will have a chance to take there owing holidays, after which a new contract offer is made.Talk of a take away of the nickel bonus may play into the company's plans of doing contract maintenance.Rumors are suggesting the new Hotel is housing a lot of new staff being trained in the mines just in case.Sometimes union's are faced with decision that some may do not see.Liberty has a lot of upside, and will face upside pressure at two dollars, and with the East back on track and World infrastructure in need of dire care, nickel prices will rise. Liberty , from what i hear, we will be adding a new circuit to capture the platinum and palladium, also this cobalt find near by is drawing attention as prices are nearing $ 35..TO day i was averaging up as others were averaging down.Happy Capitalism. ...PS,,ALWAYS CONSULT WITH YOUR FINANCIAL ADVISOR...Traps7
