Graham knows the Yukon inside and out. Very important to get NND on side and involved if you're going to operate in the Mayo area -they are major power brokers and can make or break a project in this area.
If you can get them to buy into the company, and hire locals, then they are shooting themselves in the foot every time they block a project. Or shooting the feet of some of the people who voted them in, which is just as good.
