Remember Alex. He has stock options at 2.80. On Aug. 20, 2009 Barrick was at 36.85, since then Barrick is up 13%. I wonder how many stock options he walked away from by leaving Barrick
Over at Noront Alex has stock options at 2.80 cents. Aug. 20, 2009 when he started the Noront stock was at 2.35. We now sit at 2.00 a negative difference of 15% from when he started. I'm sure he had his reasons for coming on board and leaving Barrick.
