Sum, I have never invested in Aurelian and as such, have not done my DD to understand the difference between Noront's management and theirs. Having said that, I have invested in and DD'ed enough Jr. exploration companies to appreciate the value of our management/administration team.

I find it quite interesting that Noront would allow the blog "

to be posted on THEIR PAID investor relations forum. This I believe sends a pretty clear message from Noront management to all us shareholders. We will not be sold down the river!

Back in early 2007 after our Windfall hole 100 discovery, Noront adopted a shareholder rights protection plan in an effort to ensure shareholder value is maximized in the event of hostile takeover bid. Recognizing that this might not be bulletproof in terms of maximizing shareholder value, Richard et al have put another protection plan in place. Namely all the JV's that we have signed with various other companies. Kudos Richard et al!

I take comfort that our management team has our best interests at heart and will do their best to maximize our shareholder value (unlike some other management teams).

Cheers,
