| DON'T BUY | 5.800 | Robert Cohen B.A.Sc., MBA, CFA | Large deposit, but grade is marginal. Needs copper prices to be $1.5 per pound. Not likely to be in production until 2015. Permitting is likely to slow it down. They are near a nature preserve. | 2008-08-11 | |
| BUY | 9.510 | Lawrence Roulston | One, if not, the largest undeveloped copper/gold deposits globally. Anglo American (AAUK-Q) has agreed to fund the next $1.4 billion to earn a 50% interest in the project. Way undervalued relative to other projects of that size and nature. A lot of upside from this level. | 2008-04-30 | |
| DON'T BUY | 10.620 | David Burrows | (Caller: 82 million ounces of gold and 70 billion pounds of copper. Doesn't get much coverage from analysts.) Rule of investing: if your expectation is not matching up with reality, maybe you are missing something. Stock is performing horribly against a very strong precious metals tape. | 2008-02-15 | |
| DON'T BUY | 11.650 | Robert Cohen B.A.Sc., MBA, CFA | Massive project in Alaska. Basically copper. Combination of open pit and underground. It needs long-term copper prices higher than $1.50 a pound for the open pit. Such a massive project; it will take years and years before it goes into production. Not a fan. His target is $8.25. | 2007-11-16 | |
| BUY | 11.240 | Peter Grandich | Made a deal with Anglo American. Sold 50% of a project which they are now 50% partners in. Will probably be taken out. The most attractive undeveloped gold/copper deposit in the world today. He would be very aggressive on the long side. | 2007-10-22 | |
| SELL | 13.450 | Paul VanEeden | A superb technical group. They have one of the largest undeveloped mineral deposits in the world. Copper is a major portion of this deposit and he is bearish on copper. | 2007-07-06 | |
| Comment | 12.910 | Bill Belovay | Copper, gold and molybdenum. There are environmental concerns in Alaska. Will eventually be brought on stream. | 2007-07-03 | |
| Comment | 13.550 | Paul VanEeden | A monster big undeveloped deposit. There are permit issues. Thinks it may be a takeover target, by a consortium of companies.He's bearish on copper, so he's not interested, but if you are bullish on copper then it's a good one to get into. | 2007-05-31 | |
| PAST TOP PICK | 13.640 | Peter Grandich | (A Top Pick May 12/06. Up 52%.) The #1 company to own. Expecting a major deal with a large company. | 2007-05-11 | |
| BUY | 13.550 | Kenneth P. Norquay, CMT | This is in an uptrend. We are now in the 2nd surge up, which has been going for a year and a half. | 2007-04-17 | |
| BUY | 12.940 | Bill Carrigan | Had a break out in February. With the excitement on a possible Lionore (LIM-T) takeover, more money will be flowing into these stocks, so it is probably going higher. It probably has a longer way to go. Risky, so don't go crazy. | 2007-03-27 | |
| BUY | 12.350 | Greg McCoach | Tremendous deposits. One of the largest discovered in recent years and it will become a mine. Still has a lot of upside. | 2007-03-08 | |
| PAST TOP PICK | 12.000 | Lawrence Roulston | (A Top Pick July 12/06. Up 27.3%.) Still has long ways to go. Control one of the largest undeveloped copper/gold deposits in the world. | 2007-03-07 | |
| PAST TOP PICK | 11.510 | Peter Grandich | (A Top Pick Nov 27/06. Up 29%.) Still his favourite. Just announced an increase of its resource by 90%. Strong possible takeout. | 2007-03-05 | |
| BUY | 11.510 | Jay Taylor | One of the largest gold/copper deposits globally. Keeps getting bigger and richer. There is a part of the asset where higher grades could be in production for 20-30 years or so. Probably a takeover target. | 2007-03-05 | |
| Comment | 11.510 | Jay Taylor | Doesn't follow it closely, but feels they have a good future. | 2007-03-05 | |
| TOP PICK | 9.510 | Peter Grandich | Gold, molybdenum and copper. Rio Tinto (RTP-N) has upped its ownership in the company to 20%. The play to own. 50 million ounces of gold plus 25 billion pounds of copper. New drill results show this may be twice as big. Wouldn’t be surprised to see a bid for a takeover in the 1st quarter. | 2007-01-26 | |
| WATCH | 8.700 | Bill Carrigan | Be careful with thinly traded stocks on the Venture exchange. They are volatile. The one-year chart looks like it is trying to form a symmetrical triangle. If you are long, watch and see if it breaks out. If it doesn't, start to reduce. | 2007-01-12 | |
| DON'T BUY | 9.800 | Paul VanEeden | Owns the largest copper/gold deposit in the world. Short-term risk is entirely metal price related. He is not bullish about copper. Will eventually be taken over. | 2006-12-13 | |
| DON'T BUY | 9.040 | Bill Belovay | Has problems in an environmentally protected area. | 2006-11-29 | |
| TOP PICK | 8.970 | Peter Grandich | Expect it will be involved in a strategic relationship or takeover. The largest gold/copper deposits in the world. | 2006-11-27 | |
| HOLD | 7.200 | Bill Belovay | An Alaskan project. A good project, but there are a lot of other stakeholders in the area. Some delays possible, because of controversy regarding environment. May need a lot of patience. | 2006-10-24 | |
| BUY | 6.920 | Jay Taylor | He likes it. They have world class deposits. There is great upside potential. It
could be next takeover project. It's a good time to buy. | 2006-09-25 | |
| PAST TOP PICK | 6.780 | Peter Grandich | He owns this stock and it represents a large holding of his personal portfolio. He believes that Northern Dynasty holds the largest gold, copper and aluminum deposits in the world. Also, they may not have found the largest deposits yet. | 2006-09-22 | |
| WEAK BUY | 9.050 | Michael Smedley | Has a fabulous amount of copper in Alaska. A controversial situation. There is an environmental backdrop. We'll probably be a great future stock. | 2006-08-24 | |
| DON'T BUY | 9.000 | Paul VanEeden | Has a very large copper/gold deposit in Alaska. If he is incorrect and commodities and copper stays where it is, this will be a phenomenal deposit. But if the copper price drops, then investors will be having a hard look at capital costs, capital pay back with concern about how far copper prices drop. | 2006-08-16 | |
| DON'T BUY | 9.480 | Paul VanEeden | Their property in Alaska started off fairly low grade, but large deposit near surface. Then discovered an underground deposit to the east with a higher grade. At $3.50 copper this discovery is exciting. Doesn't own because he is not bullish on base metal demand and is not buying base metals. | 2006-07-19 | |
| TOP PICK | 9.430 | Lawrence Roulston | Has the largest undeveloped metal deposit on earth. Copper, gold and molybdenum. Rio Tinto (RTP-N) took at 9.9% interest in it a short while ago. | 2006-07-12 | |
| BUY | 9.900 | Peter Grandich | Has the largest, undeveloped copper/gold deposit in the world. Has over 50 million ounces of gold and 40 billion something in copper. Located in Alaska. Possible takeover target. | 2006-06-26 | |
| TOP PICK | 9.050 | Peter Grandich | They have the largest undeveloped gold/copper deposit in the world in Alaska. Has 31 million ounces of gold and 16 billion pounds of copper. The most targeted company in the world by majors. Just a matter of time. | 2006-05-12 | |
| DON'T BUY | 8.680 | Paul VanEeden | Exceptionally good management. One of the largest copper/gold resources in North America. Huge deposit which keeps getting bigger. Limited infrastructure and the grades are modest at best. Also depends on copper. He is bearish on base metals. | 2006-05-01 | |
| DON'T BUY | 7.380 | John Embry | Skeptical about this one. Big, big property, but very low grade. In Alaska where there are environmental issues. Have had some better grades when they drilled laterally, so may have a better shot than when he had any interest in it. Can find better things. | 2006-04-17 | |
| VAGUE | 6.500 | Bill Belovay | Northern Dynasty Mines are working on getting environmental permits for land in Alaska. There is a group that is opposed to having a mine built in their backyard that are holding them back. NDM are pretty close to obtaining their permits. It is a pretty good project but it takes a long time to bull these mines. There are also opportunities in mines in Mexico. | 2006-03-14 | |
| BUY | 6.480 | Peter Grandich | It thought it found a deposit, and drilled it to see the end of it, but instead found the "e-zone" which may end up being bigger then the original deposit.
Thinks by the end of 2006 a consoridum will be put together or NDM will be taken out. | 2006-03-07 | |
| PAST TOP PICK | 5.260 | Peter Grandich | (A Top Pick July 11/05. Up 10%.) The premier play in the world today. Expects they will be acquired. Excellent drill results. | 2005-10-24 | |
| TOP PICK | 5.550 | Jay Taylor | One of the most oustanding new discoveries in recent times. 42 million ounces of gold, 24/25 billion pounds of copper and 1.3 billion pounds of molybdenum in its Pebble deposit in southern Alaska and it's not finished. A takeout candidate. | 2005-10-04 | |
| TOP PICK | 5.750 | Peter Grandich | Developing what could be the largest deposit in the world. Latest find is so mind boggling it's almost too good to be true. The biggest risk is infrastructure and permitting. | 2005-09-30 | |
| TOP PICK | 4.660 | Peter Grandich | This is one that he expects will be acquired, merged or be a major joint venture within 12 months. Has 30 million ounces of measured indicated gold, 15 billion pounds of copper. Should be worth 3/4 X its current level. | 2005-07-11 | |
| DON'T BUY | 4.700 | Paul VanEeden | Owns the Pebble deposit in Alaska which is one of the largest copper/gold deposits in the world. There is no infrastructure in the area, so the capital needed to build this project will be significant. The main reason he doesn't own is that he's bearish on the US economy and thus the global economy and thus base metals such as copper. | 2005-06-27 | |
| BUY | 4.810 | Peter Grandich | Would be shocked and disappointed if they weren't taken over by this time next year. | 2005-06-24 | |
| BUY | 4.690 | Peter Grandich | Have measured and indicated 31 million ounces of gold in Alaska. Now the concern is, will it ever get permitted. Expects a major will have to come after this company. | 2005-05-19 | |
| TOP PICK | 4.770 | Peter Grandich | Has gone against everyone's belief that they could find a deposit in Alaska. 31 million ounces of gold. 15.8 billion pounds of copper. Very cheap. | 2005-04-15 | |
| TOP PICK | 5.400 | Jay Taylor | Has one of the most remarkable deposits in the world, known as gold/copper periphery deposit located in south central Alaska. Either the largest or 2nd largest such deposit in the world and it's still growing. it has 31 million of ounces and 18.5 billion pounds of copper and 1 billion pounds of molybdenum. Will cost about $1 billion to put into production. Open pit mine, so very low stripping ratio. | 2005-04-01 | |
| BUY | 6.650 | Peter Grandich | Works with this company. Likes their holdings. | 2005-03-07 | |
| TOP PICK | 6.720 | Peter Grandich | Large deposites. Could be a takeover. | 2005-03-07 | |
| TOP PICK | 4.450 | Peter Grandich | Has delinieated an inferred resource of 26 million ounces of gold/16.5 billion pounds of copper. Feb 26 to be a watershed for Bedford. 1) Teck Cominco has to decide if it wants to option exploration area. and 2) the last 20% has an offer to buy it out. Believes they will get through these events and then the majors will have to look at it. Very speculative. | 2005-01-28 | |
| TOP PICK | 5.900 | Peter Grandich | This is the one company that would definitely be taken over in the resource area in the next 12/24 months. Has about 26 million oz of gold, almost 16 billion oz of copper, so if gold is worth $50 and copper $0.10 you have a $2 billion value, $50 million fully diluted. Divide this into $2 billion gives you $40 and the stock is only at $5/6. | 2004-12-13 | |
| STRONG BUY | 4.650 | Peter Grandich | One of the most attractive stocks around. Has the largest deposit of contained gold in North America and the 2nd largest copper. Have a memoranda of understanding from Alaska to complete permitting process by 2005. | 2004-08-18 | |
| DON'T BUY | 6.170 | John Embry | Have great regards for the people involved, but not a fan of this company. | 2004-04-15 | |
