well you nailed one of my criterias for investing and that is juniors that must be well financed... I also look for:
1) Companies exploring in Canada
2) Large resource
3) Excellent management and business plan
4) I've met and/or talked with management (preferrably both)
6) They execute and meet time lines - - - this one has a lot of flex because you have to consider where they are in development/exploration, markets and changing business plans. For instance KXL and TTQ were much better hitting timelines last year. Now that both are larger and farther into the development plan, time lines are impacted by more and variable factors.
6) Communicate well with share holders... this is more than news releases... is management available and do they answer your concerns when you call... etc...
