| Comment | 0.700 | Charles Oliver | Some controversy on some of the reported drilling results, which they are working through. Extremely cheap. Have some good assets. Think the stock will be plagued until the Board of Directors comes out and presents a new company. | 2008-07-07 | |
| DON'T BUY | 0.530 | Michael Smedley | The value of the Latin American assets might, at the very least, be equal to the current stock price. You have to have regard as to where the company is going as an entity. Has been a hideous disappointment due to lots of unfortunate circumstances. There is a lot of intrigue behind this. Still have their Peruvian operations. | 2008-02-21 | |
| SELL | 1.160 | Bill Carrigan | If you are long, he would suggest that you reduce. Do not add to your position. When stocks have a horrific decline like this one, they can go to zero. | 2007-09-05 | |
| DON'T BUY | 7.450 | Robert Floyd | Has been a disappointment in terms of development of its mine. Haven't been able to get it together in finding enough resources to push mine development aggressively. | 2007-05-11 | |
| DON'T BUY | 7.430 | Michael Smedley | Excellent people with a tremendous land spread. They never seem to get to production. | 2007-05-01 | |
| BUY | 8.000 | John Embry | Has acted extraordinarily poorly and he doesn't know why. Perhaps management doesn't project well. Thinks they have 5 million oz. in China, which could be proven in a feasibility study in the near future. Very cheap. Buy as a value play. | 2007-04-03 | |
| HOLD | 8.010 | Bill Carrigan | Has been watching this for a long time. It is possible the worst could be over for this. Make sure it doesn't hit a 52 week low. | 2007-03-27 | |
| SELL | 7.400 | Ron Meisels | Has been in a downtrend since early 2006 and is below its 200 day moving average. | 2007-02-14 | |
| PAST TOP PICK | 7.550 | John Embry | (A Top Pick Nov 30/06. Down 9.7%.) Still buying. One of the great generators of mining projects. Looking for it to be taken out in the next couple of years. | 2007-02-08 | |
| HOLD | 7.770 | Hap (Robert) Sneddon FCSI | Would be a little concerned if it started to break down through the current lows but in the meantime would continue to hold. Will take awhile to get back up to the $12 area. | 2007-01-30 | |
| DON'T BUY | 7.780 | Peter Grandich | Has gone sideways to down for quite a while. Wouldn't be his first choice and wouldn't be interested until it went below $7. | 2007-01-26 | |
| DON'T BUY | 8.010 | Larry Berman CFA, CMT, CTA | Had a major breakdown in March/06 and has not recovered, while a lot of other mining stocks have turned higher. Building a technical base, but hasn't done anything positive yet. | 2007-01-17 | |
| DON'T BUY | 8.100 | Paul VanEeden | Have a project in China called Boka that received a lot of media attention a few years ago. Initially, it looked very large with very good economics. He feels the economics and it are going to be tough. | 2007-01-16 | |
| Comment | 8.050 | Peter Hodson | Upside potential is there, but has been there for 2 or 3 years. Good management and well financed and there’s nothing they’ve done wrong but the street, for some reason, doesn’t believe the asset is as good as his company thinks. | 2006-12-28 | |
| TOP PICK | 8.470 | John Embry | Has done poorly in the last couple of years, possibly because management has thinned out. Just reported very good results. Because their market cap has shrunk, they may be cut out of the TSX index. | 2006-11-30 | |
| WAIT | 7.600 | Peter Grandich | Probably one of the more disappointing companies. If it drops below $7.50, Newmont (NEM-N), which already has a relationship with them, may be interested in taking them out. There won't be a big premium. Consider putting in a stink-bid below $7 in December. | 2006-11-27 | |
| DON'T BUY | 8.030 | Michael Smedley | Company continues to expand its asset in Yunnan. Also has expansions going on in Latin America. Has been very quiet and you can probably do better with other companies, such as Agnico-Eagle (AEM-T). | 2006-11-22 | |
| DON'T BUY | 7.150 | Peter Hodson | Have some pretty attractive assets. Balance sheet is in great shape. Located in China and a lot of people are wary. | 2006-11-20 | |
| DON'T BUY | 8.550 | Bill Belovay | Doesn't like management. | 2006-10-24 | |
| BUY | 10.430 | Jean-Francois Tardif | They are going to spin out a zinc asset. Doesn't know how much the market will value this. 2 gold deposits, one in China and one in Peru. Gold has been moving nicely lately. | 2006-09-06 | |
| BUY | 9.680 | Bill Harris, CFA | Has a really big asset in China. You just don't know, is it mineable. It seems to be getting closer. Have done some other projects internally on other base metals, which has him excited and which could propel the stock into the mid-teens. | 2006-09-01 | |
| WEAK BUY | 8.650 | Bill Carrigan | There have been a series of lower lows and the last corrective period since May there have been a series of lower highs. You can buy, but make sure you have a Mental Stop at $8.49. | 2006-08-11 | |
| HOLD | 8.800 | Michael Smedley | Perking up a little bit of favourable news on its base metal assets. A slow mover. | 2006-07-20 | |
| DON'T BUY | 9.610 | Gavin Graham | A gold mine in China. Question is, and they really there and if so, can they get the gold out. Would prefer a North American unhedged gold instead. | 2006-07-06 | |
| WEAK BUY | 9.030 | Michael Smedley | Had some good drilling news in the last couple of days. Has been disappointing and is clearly not as spicy as others. | 2006-06-22 | |
| TOP PICK | 8.310 | John Embry | Basically in China but also have a large land spread in Peru. In the process of proving up a significant resource in China which can be converted to reserves of a minimum of 5 million ounces. The correction in the sector is giving a great opportunity. | 2006-06-13 | |
| BUY | 9.720 | Peter Hodson | Doing a spinout of their zinc assets. A lot of people don't like China right now and the exploration market is spinning back towards safer names. When we get a market recovery, the stock should do quite well. | 2006-06-06 | |
| Comment | 13.360 | Brian Acker, CA | Unfortunately, the last balance sheet was in December and there is only one estimate included in his database. Doesn't have a model price. | 2006-05-10 | |
| BUY | 14.180 | Bill Carrigan | This has been one of the laggards in the sector so this may be a place to nestle in. He is kind of getting negative on the commodity play. The one-year chart shows that is not a bad pattern. | 2006-05-02 | |
| HOLD | 14.750 | Ron Meisels | Did very well in 2003, broke out in 2004, then went into a correction and bottomed out. Had a base building for about a year and a half, broke out at about $11 and is now in a secondary accumulation. A move above $16 would indicate the next move upwards. | 2006-04-24 | |
| BUY | 15.000 | Michael Smedley | Understands that it has been lifting in the last day or two on a kind of a silver background. Not an exciting stock compared to other golds. A serious company to hold. | 2006-04-20 | |
| DON'T BUY | 13.840 | David Burrows | Smaller than the usual company he looks at. No earnings. Despite a roaring all market in gold stocks, this one has not performed. | 2006-04-10 | |
| DON'T BUY | 14.100 | Bill Belovay | Southwestern Resources are operating in China. There are also risks operating in China. They have deposits in Peru. This stock will move with the gold price. This expert does not own this stock because of the high risks involved. | 2006-03-14 | |
| HOLD | 14.470 | Peter Grandich | It's not on everybodies takeover list anymore. He would buy at 12 - 12.5 wouldn't sell. | 2006-03-07 | |
| PAST TOP PICK | 15.250 | Ron Meisels | This stock has done well. Believes it will go higher than $22. Very positive. He would buy it today even if it dips to $12.50. | 2006-03-02 | |
| BUY | 14.830 | Ian Nakamoto | Feels that gold is still in a secular move up. What will keep this stock moving is the further delineation of the properties they have. | 2006-01-31 | |
| BUY on WEAKNESS | 14.810 | Michael Smedley | Would wait for a settling back in the gold price which would bring the stock price back down to $12 or something. An interesting, longer term growth story. | 2006-01-19 | |
| DON'T BUY | 15.500 | Robert Cohen B.A.Sc., MBA, CFA | They have two assets, there is the Liam zinc property and another one in Peru as well as the Boka gold project in China. They may spin off their zinc assets which would make sense. The gold project in China has always worried him as he feels mining could be very difficult. | 2006-01-11 | |
| BUY | 15.330 | John Embry | A strange stock in that it has very strong adherence and it has many knockers. He deals they will mine, in the open pit, close to 3 grams which is a good grade. | 2006-01-10 | |
| DON'T BUY | 15.210 | Gavin Graham | Has some interesting exploration prospects in China. This is a speculation. It has a good track record and some good properties, but whether or not they'll be able to develop them is another matter. | 2006-01-09 | |
| Comment | 14.790 | David Burrows | There are not that many junior and intermediate producers and exploration companies that have really great opportunities right now. This one is performing very well. This group will perform as a group. As long as the metal price is strong, they will continue to perform well. | 2006-01-04 | |
| BUY on WEAKNESS | 14.650 | Michael Smedley | Has broken out, partly on the recovery of gold and partly on covering at the year end. Probably has a long ways to go before it is taken out. Have a large open pit mine they will continue trying to develop. Also interesting activities in Peru. They are called aspect is in China. If you own, continue to hold and by more if it drops to the $10/11 level. | 2006-01-03 | |
| DON'T BUY | 33.500 | Bill Harris, CFA | What you want to own in a gold bull market is an exploration company with a potential of a big gold deposit. This company is supposed to be like that, has been out there 3 years and has done a terrific job delineating this gold deposit. Half of the experts thinks it is not a mine and the other half thinks it is absolutely there. Very risky. | 2006-01-03 | |
| BUY | 10.500 | Bruce Campbell | Should be higher based on the price of gold. It's still early days. A couple of years away from production. If gold hits $500, you may see this one break out and head towards $11/112 where it should be. | 2005-11-21 | |
| BUY | 9.890 | Michael Smedley | Have great exploration plays and great assets, but the stock is dropping. This because of the yawn factor. They are very dedicated in developing this asset. It's going to take 3 to 5 years to turn it into a 2,000 ounce mine. They are still expanding the property. You'll have to be patient with it. | 2005-11-18 | |
| BUY | 9.800 | Ian Nakamoto | An exploration gold company and not a widows and orphans type of stock. Shows a good growth profile. | 2005-11-02 | |
| DON'T BUY | 9.750 | Gavin Graham | Doesn't follow this one closely. Seems to be gold in southwestern China, but whether you can get it out and whether the Chinese will let you keep it is another question. Not one he would choose to play. | 2005-10-31 | |
| BUY | 10.250 | Peter Grandich | The worse seems to be over for them. It will work higher as gold goes higher. Would look favourably on its futiure. | 2005-10-24 | |
| BUY on WEAKNESS | 10.320 | Lawrence Roulston | Have a number of very good projects. Disappointed investors by not moving the Boka project in China ahead as quickly as they could have. Good projects in Chile also. | 2005-10-03 | |
| WEAK BUY | 10.750 | Larry Berman CFA, CMT, CTA | Has a lot higher beta (volatility) than most stocks so when the sector is hot, it's going to do very well. Recently gold has pulled off of the $478 high which gave a little bit of under performance in September. At some point here, it's a buy, but is a riskier way to play the sector. | 2005-09-28 | |
| WEAK BUY | 10.400 | Michael Smedley | Requires patience. Expect it to eventually get to $25. Not his favourite gold. | 2005-09-27 | |
| BUY | 10.680 | Bruce Campbell | A China gold play. Very cheap on a per ounce basis. It hangs around the $9/10/11 mark. Looks pretty cheap and should be $14 now. | 2005-09-12 | |
| PAST TOP PICK | 12.000 | John Embry | (A Top Pick May 26/05. Up 28%.) A terribly misunderstood stock. A very large ore body. | 2005-08-23 | |
| BUY | 12.400 | Michael Smedley | They've had feasability results on the engineering side so they are getting towards the prospect of a mine. The general thought is there is a 200,000 ounce producer. Still have a lot more to do and this could go on for years. | 2005-08-11 | |
| BUY | 12.200 | Bill Carrigan | Not a raging bull on precious metals, There is a time and place for them and this is probably the time if they are ever going to get going. Have a new uptrend in place now. | 2005-08-09 | |
| WEAK BUY | 11.060 | Michael Smedley | Tended to be a little slow. People got impatient that the price hadn't done fanatastic. It's beginning to show that they have a 200,000 oz type mine. They're not really operators and at some point a partner will come in. | 2005-07-20 | |
| BUY | 10.280 | Bruce Campbell | An exploration (Boca) play in China as well as a partnership in Peru. What will drive the stock in the short term is Boca. Some recent results were quite good. 2007 would be his best guess as far as getting to production. Wants to go up as soon as the gold price is positive. Cheap. | 2005-07-14 | |
| BUY | 10.980 | Peter Grandich | The worst is behind them. The takeover talk that existed a year or two ago has been wrung out of the stock. Continue to prove up a nice deposit. Going to be a market performer. | 2005-07-11 | |
| PAST TOP PICK | 10.560 | John Embry | (A Top Pick May 26/05. Up 16%.) What it needs is its pre-engineering report validating Boka. Very close and will have a very positive impact on the stock. | 2005-07-05 | |
| BUY | 10.280 | Peter Grandich | Thinks that most of the over excessiveness is now gone and will be a market performer now. | 2005-06-24 | |
| DON'T BUY | 9.630 | Rick Rule | When they abandoned the business plan of prospect generation (generating projects and using other peoples money) he had to sell. Very attracted to what they are doing in Peru. Expects they will go lower given the concentrated nature of the ownership. | 2005-06-02 | |
| TOP PICK | 9.200 | John Embry | Feels the Chinese asset will be validated when the engineering report finally comes out. They are fantastic generators of mining exploration properties. Has a lot of cash. Buying back stock. | 2005-05-26 | |
| HOLD | 8.040 | Michael Smedley | Nothing tremendous going on in the gold sector. Has been doing its development work in China for a long time. Has a good asset there as well as in Peru. Have patience. | 2005-05-25 | |
| BUY on WEAKNESS | 7.400 | Peter Grandich | Has been in a major downtrend. Has been bearish on this stock. Now coming to a level where some long term value appeal can be had but feels there is still some correction left in metals. Below $7 it would start to become interesting. | 2005-05-19 | |
| BUY | 7.670 | Bruce Campbell | Bulk of deposit is in China. Market is waiting for a scoping study. If gold and the US$ stabilize, gold is an attractive area at these levels. | 2005-05-16 | |
| DON'T BUY | 8.300 | Peter Hodson | Doesn't mind the company nor the assets, but it was a very painful stock to own so he sold all his shares. The buyers just aren't there, whether it's China, management, etc. it's one of those ones that he held for 1 1/2 years and couldn't take it any more. | 2005-05-10 | |
| BUY | 8.550 | Robert Lyon | There's good value in this stock. Have 2 of the best exploration projects on the planet, one in China and the other in Peru which is a joint one with Newmont Mining (NEM-N). You'll have to be patient with this one 12/24 months. You will make money. Will be choppy. | 2005-05-04 | |
| DON'T BUY | 9.000 | Gavin Graham | Have some interesting drilling results in China, but prefers this type of stock on North American property where you can see what there is. Too many questions. | 2005-04-26 | |
| BUY | 9.800 | Michael Smedley | Nothing negative. Firing on all cylinders. Continuing to patiently develop their potential mine space in China and they do have some very rich positive finds in Latin America. Probably dropped because of a lack of interest in gold stocks. | 2005-04-06 | |
| BUY | 9.940 | John Embry | Very light retail selling volumes. The junior golds are weak. A great opportunity for the good quality stocks. | 2005-04-04 | |
| HOLD | 12.350 | Michael Smedley | Very boring, but it is for real. Have great assets in Peru, and some other tie ins in China. | 2005-03-09 | |
| DON'T BUY | 12.100 | Gavin Graham | Volatile, gold likely to rise as US dollar falls. | 2005-03-02 | |
| DON'T BUY | 11.700 | Paul VanEeden | Too expensive not to be taken over. Assets in Boca, China. | 2005-03-01 | |
| BUY | 10.980 | Michael Smedley | Brilliant management. Great assets in gold and other metals. | 2005-02-23 | |
| BUY | 10.900 | Don Vialoux | In a distinct downward trend and has a support around the $10 level. Has been responding very sharply to changes in gold prices during the last couple of weeks. Should do very well between now and the end of May. Can be volatile. | 2005-02-10 | |
| BUY | 11.680 | Michael Smedley | Gold stocks are very boring these days. This company is getting a little long in the tooth. Just announced an unbelievable drill result of high quality gold. Good management. Very good strong links with Newmont. | 2005-01-19 | |
| HOLD | 10.120 | Robert Lyon | People should be looking at this at these levels. Has been down because everyone is waiting for the next piece of news. A lot of potential in their property. There are risks. | 2005-01-11 | |
| VAGUE | 12.400 | John Embry | Have some good joint ventures. Could be a takeout in the next 6/12 months. | 2004-12-22 | |
| BUY | 14.770 | Michael Smedley | Should go higher. | 2004-11-25 | |
| BUY | 14.330 | Ian Nakamoto | Believes in the story. Far from being completed, Could eventually be a takeover. | 2004-11-02 | |
| PAST TOP PICK | 14.500 | John Embry | (A Top Pick Aug 10/04. Up 38%.) Most recent drill results were terrific. A terrific opportunity. | 2004-11-01 | |
| BUY | 14.600 | Michael Smedley | Have come out with a very decent announcement out of China of an extremely high grade. Has a lot of potential to move higher. | 2004-10-29 | |
| BUY | 14.700 | Lawrence Roulston | Early stage on the China project. Will take more drilling to get the confirmation. Peru project is very large and looks attractive, but fairly early stage. Could be a takeover. | 2004-10-06 | |
| DON'T BUY | 14.500 | Paul VanEeden | In spite of enormous mineralization in China, it will be difficult and costly to mine it. | 2004-10-01 | |
| DON'T BUY | 14.500 | Peter Grandich | An OK performer. Speculative interest is out of it. | 2004-10-01 | |
| TOP PICK | 12.360 | Andrew McCreath | Has a couple of interesting asset plays, one in Peru and one in China. Expects news out of Peru in the near term. Speculative. | 2004-09-27 | |
| WATCH | 11.110 | Michael Smedley | Difficulties. Very exciting prospects. | 2004-09-22 | |
| STRONG BUY | 10.200 | John Embry | An overlooked company and not sure why. Have a real suite of interesting properties in Peru. Feels the company is worth more than the assets they have in China. Could be a takeout. | 2004-09-07 | |
| DON'T BUY | 10.700 | Peter Grandich | Has been bearish on the stock as it has been overvalued. Feels they can still go a lot lower. | 2004-08-18 | |
| DON'T BUY | 10.700 | Peter Grandich | Has been bearish on the stock as it has been overvalued. Feels they can still go a lot lower. | 2004-08-18 | |
| DON'T BUY | 10.700 | Peter Grandich | Has been bearish on the stock as it has been overvalued. Feels they can still go a lot lower. | 2004-08-18 | |
| TOP PICK | 10.560 | John Embry | The company is better today than it was six months ago and yet is trading at only half the price. | 2004-08-10 | |
| BUY | 10.000 | Bruce Campbell | Has been buying it under $11. An expiration play in China and Peru. More drills are on-site, results are fine but it is based on the price of gold which has been poor. A great entry point if you feel gold will go up. | 2004-08-06 | |
| BUY | 10.030 | Robert Lyon | Fairly cheap at these levels. Some of the holes (gold) in China were spectacular. A high risk story. No production today. Basically an exploration stock. Have 2 of the best exploration prospects of any company in Canada. | 2004-08-05 | |
| BUY | 11.100 | Michael Smedley | There is limited following on this stock. Can't see anything bad about the stock and its price has descended considerably. Expecting good news on their forthcoming report. | 2004-07-28 | |
| BUY | 11.660 | Ian Nakamoto | Large gold companies have very little increase in production, so tends to like Junior companies although they are more volatile. | 2004-07-27 | |
| BUY | 14.750 | Michael Smedley | Has extremely exciting components in different parts of the world. Possibly could be a takeover. A good price. | 2004-07-14 | |
| WAIT | 15.100 | Peter Hodson | No longer just a pure explorer, but now have assets so will survive the matter what happens to the gold price. Good management/balance sheet. Not a fan of the gold sector right now. | 2004-07-08 | |
| BUY | 14.550 | John Embry | Great property in China. The potential is 15,000,000 ounces. Pretty good grade as well. Also good assets in Peru. | 2004-06-29 | |
| BUY | 29.500 | Ian Nakamoto | Likes co. Could be a take over | 2004-06-15 | |
