Re-reading the press release, I saw that the word "production" was used four times, and the word "pre-production" was used once. Seems to me a unusual emphasis on production from a mining exploration company.
The direct comments of Richard Nemis towards the end of the press release,confirm, in my mind, the future of NOT.V as a producing company. He said the 43-101 compliant mineral resources at Eagle One, coupled with the very recent discovery of additional coarse, visible gold at Windfall Lake:
" ...indicate excellent potential for production revenues in the not too distant future. The main advantage of our current exploration effort is the minimal capital expenditures required, and possible early lead time, to begin obtaining production revenue from these resources."
Two revenue-producing projects in the near future! This is company-changing news. Hence the press release title "Another Windfall for Noront ..."
