NI 43-101 Update (September 2012): 11.1 Mt @ 1.68% Ni, 0.87% Cu, 0.89 gpt Pt and 3.09 gpt Pd and 0.18 gpt Au (Proven & Probable Reserves) / 8.9 Mt @ 1.10% Ni, 1.14% Cu, 1.16 gpt Pt and 3.49 gpt Pd and 0.30 gpt Au (Inferred Resource)
Clearly falls back on Agoracom.
Their 12 month contract comes up in September. They also disclosed that they agreed not to sell the 250,000 optioned shares for a period of 12 months.
Should management renew the $2000/month agreement? That is the question in my mind.
I'm posting this old NR for the newbies who keep asking for more IR. This agreement with AG is supposed to be the online IR element.
