i am sure they are doing what they can considering the current financial conditions out there. we need to be a little realistic here, we are talking about a nickel mine that is not operating and that needs cash to clear current debts in a market that has had nickel plunge in price and stock qty surge up. there are nickel mines closing all around. i know of quite a few very viable gold mining operations that are struggling to get financing even with the gold price where it is at so we should not expect a rabbit out of a hat for a nickel mine in this situation.
