I've noticed among mining companies, particularly Canadian juniors and explorers, that they have a tendency to release bad news of Friday's, and good news very less often on Friday's.

Having watched LBSR for years now, I don't think any such tendencies apply to them. They seem to release news "when it's ready", meaning whenever the legal team approves the wording in the draft.

If anything, I feel JB is prone to offering much more in releases than counsel is willing to allow.

On another subject, this is beginning to look like another spring market without a major move higher in mining stocks, but there is still some time left, and we will soon begin to seen quarterlies among producers showing higher returns based on lower energy costs.
