I am not very well versed on the operation of the JVs and the complexities of such operations or the functions of board members working with different companies, but I would think that the more involvement that any of the Noront people have with any of the ROF players the more influence and information will be available to NOT. This should benefit Not and add to their overall strength in the area.

It seems that having these people on their board should also help any company that is working in the ROF area as they will be getting influence from some very good talent and people who are very informed on the geology and workings of the larger group of companies. This to me would make these companies one to consider and watch as they could be a great investment opportunity.

It would seem a very positive situation for all of us.
