Across the board on preopening it looks like another trying day for 'ROF' exploration companies. Spring drill season is getting closer but for some reason it's just not encouraging new investors to get involved.

Noront once again has to carry everyone by proving the high probability of a solid mining camp in this area.

Noront has no doubt been getting the word out about the financial implications of the massive and rich 'chromium' to institutional investors (big boys). That should bring in a level of price support but these guys want as cheap as they can get for a quick double.

About all we retail investors can do is watch the games, grin (or grimace) and bear it for the eventual payoff. Once I'd have been quite happy with $10 but all the aggravation handed out makes me want to join a lot of you and insist on $20.
