At $0.15 per share right now, my advise to Mr. MacRitchie is– SELL!
Why doesn’t this company go away? It doesn’t mine, it isn’t in tile business, toxic tiles don’t sell in any housing market let alone a down market, its stock has plummeted, and it has little support for its main project- the re-opening of the Idaho Maryland Mine.
Ben- Don’t most of these recent candidates support the re-opening of these mines?
