| WEAK BUY | 1.310 | Dennis Da Silva | Basically reprocesses tailing streams from the largest copper mine in Chile. Not his preferred choice as a copper play. | 2011-02-14 | |
| BUY | 0.930 | Andrew Cook | Molly price has been good and copper has been strong. Quite optimistic on the price of Molly. This stock had a few problems before the recession, which they have resolved. They are starting to benefit from the higher prices of the commodities. Chile is relatively safe. | 2010-04-26 | |
| DON'T BUY | 0.710 | Bill Harris, CFA | Always seems to have things happening to it. In Chile, electricity shuts down and costs go through the roof. Doesn’t have the kind of leverage of other companies on molybdenum. | 2009-11-10 | |
| BUY on WEAKNESS | 0.690 | Andrew Cook | Molybdenum and copper. When the market stops correcting in about 2 to 4 weeks you should be able to find a very attractive entry point. ($0.64) | 2009-10-28 | |
| Comment | 0.530 | Rick Rule | (Market Call Minute.) Nervous about the price of copper but the company is priced at about 20% of replacement costs, which is a bargain so he can't bring himself to sell. | 2009-09-01 | |
| BUY | 0.530 | Andrew Cook | Reprocess tailings from a big copper producer in Chile. Likes of valuation. Pretty good growth profile. Wouldn't be surprised to see them reinstate the dividend they cut. | 2009-08-20 | |
| DON'T BUY | 1.480 | Bill Harris, CFA | (Market Call Minute.) Copper play in Chile and costs in Chile are unknown and power is a nightmare. Too risky. | 2008-08-20 | |
| DON'T BUY | 2.580 | Bill Harris, CFA | Copper processing in Chile. It started moving and he took some profits. Things started getting greyer, so he sold his holdings. They have a great project, 50-year mine life, paid out most of their earnings in dividends. The problem is that costs are out of control. | 2007-11-05 | |
| Comment | 2.850 | Kenneth P. Norquay, CMT | Has had on long-term uptrend since 2003. The chart shows it spikes up and then cools off. He would use a stoploss based on the low of August. The resistance level is the old high of $3.43. You also want to see volume. | 2007-10-12 | |
| BUY | 2.850 | Bill Belovay | Copper and molybdenum in Chile. Takes the Copper tailings (plus some molybdenum) from an existing producing mine. This one belongs in a long-term portfolio. | 2007-07-03 | |
| PAST TOP PICK | 2.600 | Bill Harris, CFA | Then 1.96 Copper has done well so this stock has done well as well. It's an inexpensive way to get into mining. It's a mining processing facility which produces copper. He's still holding on to it. | 2007-05-31 | |
| Comment | 2.540 | Michael Smedley | A bit of an oddity as it depends on the tailings coming down a Chilean mountain for processing. Does seem to want to become a producer. Could be some short-term risks and stumbles. Good dividend. This is not what he would go into a mining company for. | 2007-05-25 | |
| BUY | 2.540 | Paul Gardner, CFA | A safe way to deal with molybdenum and copper. They take the tailings from a copper project in Chile and process it, so they are processors, not miners. 4% dividend. Excellent managers. The mine has a 50-year lifespan. Almost like and annuities situation. | 2007-05-17 | |
| Comment | 3.070 | Alex Ruus | Primarily copper with some molybdenum. Has had a run in the last 3 to 4 months. 4% dividend. One of the better conservative plays in the mining field. | 2007-05-07 | |
| HOLD | 3.160 | Robert Cohen B.A.Sc., MBA, CFA | 4% dividend. Produces copper and molybdenum from the fresh tailings of the mine in Chile. | 2007-04-20 | |
| TOP PICK | 2.990 | Bill Harris, CFA | Everything has clicked. Copper has gone from $2.50 to $3.50. They have the production back in line and a large percentage of their revenue has molybdenum in it. | 2007-04-13 | |
| BUY | 2.900 | Jean-Francois Tardif | Produces copper and molybdenum. Processes low-grade tailings from another company's mine. Moly prices should really do well. If copper stays high and Molly continues to rise, the stock should do well. | 2007-04-10 | |
| BUY | 2.400 | Ron Meisels | Since 2004 it has been doing very well in a very narrow trading range. It is probably ready for the next leg. | 2007-03-21 | |
| BUY | 2.080 | Bill Belovay | Copper. Takes waste from a nearby mine and processes it to get copper. The mine had some operational problems that affected them, but this is now cleared up. Also gets some molybdenum. | 2007-02-15 | |

| BUY | 1.860 | Bill Harris, CFA | Has a 50 year copper asset. Fairly high costs, but the costs should come down. 4% yield. Has been incredibly beaten up. Should go up, even if copper comes off. | 2006-12-22 | |
| DON'T BUY | 1.860 | Alex Ruus | Just sold his holdings. Looks cheap. If you believe copper prices will stay high, you should continue to hold. He has a negative outlook for copper for the coming year. US housing is one of the primary consumers of copper. | 2006-11-22 | |
| PAST TOP PICK | 1.910 | Bill Harris, CFA | (A Top Pick Sept 1/06. Down 1%.) Pure Copper play. 50 year mine life. Should have a low operating cost when they get their operational problems fixed in 6 months. Inexpensive way to have exposure to copper. 5-year view. | 2006-11-20 | |
| HOLD | 1.790 | Bill Belovay | Chilean operation. Takes the copper tailings from a mine and processes it. Have quite a bit of cash. They aren't up to where they were projected to be yet, but it's a good hold. | 2006-10-24 | |
| BUY | 1.770 | Bill Harris, CFA | His only base metal investment. This is not a mining risk, but is processing. They take the tailings from a mine company in Chile and reprocess the copper from that. Low-cost. 50 year life. Has the ability to grow in volume. | 2006-09-18 | |
| TOP PICK | 1.950 | Bill Harris, CFA | Processing project on one of the biggest copper mines in the world. Processes the sludge that the mine produces. 50 year mine life. Has just cut back because of environmental concerns, but in a years time it is solvable. Expects a consitant return for the long term. | 2006-09-01 | |
| TOP PICK | 1.960 | Bill Harris, CFA | A copper processing facility in Chile. It is not copper mining, but is copper manufacturing in a way. Pays 4.5% yield. Very profitable. Using a copper price of $1.50 going forward, he gets an NAV of over $3. | 2006-06-09 | |
| BUY | 2.640 | Paul Harris, CFA | In copper. Pays a dividend. Thinks of it as more of a manufacturing company than a mining company. Should continue to do well. | 2006-04-18 | |
| STRONG BUY | 2.610 | Bill Harris, CFA | Looks more like a manufacturing company than a mining company. They take tailings off a large copper producer in Chile and process the waste and get a lot of copper. 50 year resource. Very low tech and low cost and they have the ability to double/triple their operation in the next 5 years. | 2006-03-24 | |
| Comment | 2.280 | Michael Smedley | Handles the copper tailings from another company's mines in Chile and reprocesses them. Not the kind of stock he would be interested in. He would rather have a direct copper mining project. Gives a 4% dividend. Will take a close look at this one. | 2006-01-03 | |
| BUY | 1.900 | Rick Rule | Good management. Copper producer out of Chile. Has a molybdenum recovery operation which will substantially enhance revenues going forward. | 2005-06-02 | |
| WATCH | 1.600 | Bill Harris, CFA | A terrific angle on base metals. Takes copper tailings from one of the big mines in Chile and reprocesses. In the right space in copper. Good management. Should be able to double/triple over the next couple of years. Not expensive. Will look at it during the base metal pull back. | 2005-01-07 | |
| TOP PICK | 1.200 | Bill Harris, CFA | A lot of the senior and intermediate companies are now at and through their target prices. A very small story. Risky. They are producing. They can do $.10 in earnings in a year's time. | 2003-10-10 | |
| BUY | 0.920 | Robert Cohen B.A.Sc., MBA, CFA | Likes the stock.Should make money.Low risk. | 2003-08-21 |
