"One question: What do you think was the purpose of the meeting? Warning about financing? The good news about pre-production? Simply updating people?"
I imagine Gary has been receiving a lot of phone calls lately from concerned/upset investors and felt the need to update the company's status with a group rather than have to do it individually. One investor in particular was very agitated and threw a lot of firey questions at Gary.
Gary's optimism is good to hear and I think we can remain confident that as long as the nickel market is kind to us, we have all of our ducks in a row and we'll be successful. If the nickel market has other plans, however... well, that's just the risk of early stage mining operations.
