Just got off the phone with buddy in Webequie, things are still pretty much shut down right now, hotel and crew houses empty except for care and maintenence staff, some chopper activity, usually coincides with flights into the airport. The road work continues with crews working from both ends road is about 45 kms from Lansdowne House, it will be awhile before the road officially opens, he's heard maybe next week for a 5 ton load in with transports to follow as roadwork progresses, they are flooding and packing the problem areas. He expects the linecutters to be arriving any day now. Currently around -26 or so and gas is still $1.99 ltr. Today was quite the day for Richards old Ring of Fire! I am curious as to the timing of the "rumors", which Glorieux mentioned started circulating right around the time the crews hit the streets on XMAS shutdown, I imagine there was alot of scuttlebut on those flights south.lol. With all the financing thats been going on lately with the guys like Miineral Feilds its no wonder that interest has increased in the ROF players, personally i think that 1 or more large entity's have taken up strategic positions, i guess the million dollar question is: who are these guys buying up the stock? Now to see if i can get a good contact in Marten Falls and Nakina.
