I agree! Excellent post, I have been reading your posts from the first 200m, 9% nickel drill hole, & have found your insight to be of great value. Thank you for sharing it here!

Question:

1. Would FN really stop all court proceedings if they didn't have the deal they wanted? I mean, they said in the news that they pulled it because they were starting to negotiate… Hummm?? I think, if the stopped the court proceedings they would lose all power to negotiate…

2. As people have mentioned, would a man extremely high up in Xstrata leave his post, of five yrs., if he didn’t know the FN were on board and have most of his shares tied to share price rewards??

No question:

The biggest portion of this deal is completed & they have to wait to make it look like it’s still going on. If any of us in the know, had any more$$$ we would be running the NOT stock up now, which would look like insider trading. Having all this info. is almost like insider trading.

The news will come in order, but just hold on until NOT continues the deep drilling around 1450m that reported 948g/ton of Platinum! Our Chinese friends didn’t open that new lab to test muskeg… High strength Steel is what the news report said.

The only debate I see on the table is when…

Oh yeah & should we be talking so much about cliffs or Xstrata... Big connections there now too!! another thought to ponder... bidding war??

Ps. Khareema, I value your opinion greatly as well. Hold your million shares, the time is coming...
