..." IMO once we have an agreement with the First Nations, and a road or rail is confirmed and we let the drills prove up a few more million tonnes of Ni there will be many investment banks jumping in. I just hope we're not taken out too early for that to happen..." (Googleye)

Noront has an extraordinary future, and I think will eventually become the foremost multi mineral mining company in Canada. The nickel, copper,chromite, vanadium, palladium etc. are all in the ground, BUT... as shareholders, we don't want to have this great potential stolen from us prematurely by Hedge Funds that have manipulated their holdings sufficiently to control a vote.

Our stock price was at over $7. two years ago, and now with far more than triple the tonnage, and exciting new chrome discoveries etc., we flounder at $1.50 for the third time!

We are being played with over and over again. Good news means nothing, until the Funds want it to mean something.

My average purchase price is about $3.25, and many others have average prices way above this. Excluding those who trade this stock, there is fear that we might at any time be cheated by a Major making a grab for us, and meet the same fate as the Aurelian investors. Similar tactics, similar Directors.

Many have suffered with this stock for a long time, and yet still remain prepared to have that "stomach of iron" referred to by Richard, if we're treated fairly.

It would be nice to have WES update his shareholders with some exciting news that will propel NOT"s share price to a realm that discourages theft by a Major.

I think we're at the bottom right here, but who knows anymore...

Thanks for listening,
