You easily dismiss JB but you don't consider the era he had to work in. The majority of the time after they made several discoveries they were working against the Obama Administration. Those were not conducive times for mining ventures to be starting up wouldn't you agree? The last 2-3 years everything has turned around for mining in America and we've seen the best conditions in decades and we are still no closer to putting a drill in the ground than we were 10 years ago. Don't you think something is amiss now?
