I hope for the sake of the US they're not just figuring all this out now...If they are than the first thing I have to say is " DUH ! ", and the second is " EH ! " ...As in EH ! If your looking to invest in a nickel mine Noront's Eagle's Nest mine, and the Ring of Fire nickel paradise, is to the North of the US. Not far off to the east, or west...But a hop, skip, and jump North. You know....That place very close to you called, "CANADUH". That place where Alan Coutts, the CEO of Noront Resources lives...WHO SHOULD BE TALKING TO YOU, AND WHO DOES NOT TELL HIS SHAREHOLDERS IF HE IS TALKING TO YOU OR NOT...HINT, HINT.  NOR DOES HE MENTION TALKING WITH HIS OWN CANADIAN GOVERNMENT, OR FIRST NATIONS FOR THAT MATTER..AGAIN.. HINT, HINT..

Crikey...Am I being too subtle here mate.
