Thank you for responding to our messageand providing us with your e-mail address. I've recently been added to the staff here at KWG reenhancing the shareholder communications program and that is why we are sending you this update.
As you probably know by now, Freewest Resources Canada Inc., our joint venture partner in the 'Big Daddy' chromite deposit was acquired in a takeover bid of $240M by Cliffs Natural Resources (NYSE - CLF) after the shareholders ofFreewest voted 82% in favour of the offer on Jan 27, 2010.
When Cliffs acquired Freewest they took control of the 'Black Thor' and 'Black Label' chromite deposits.
