I remembered one final thing from my chat with Neil.
It's clear to me that Neil loves what he's doing, and wants Spider Resources to continue into the future beyond chromite.
He mentioned that he wants to do more work on the JBL looking for kimberlite. He's also been recently talking with Jim Voisin about their JV at McFaulds. He specifically mentioned copper and zinc, which are the minerals found in the initial VMS discoveries a way back when.
So I guess my point is the Neil Novak doesn't seem to be interested in retiring any time soon. Of course, he might be persuaded to do so if he can get some help from his investors to get SPQ's share price to $5.00 (my dreaming here folks).
