Opinions from Andrew Cook

TOP PICKAntrim EnergyAEN-T1.250North Sea oil. Some production in Argentina but the real juice to the story is a development well that they are partnered with in the North Sea that is coming on in 2012 with a 2nd one in 2013. This will ramp up their cash flow and increase their production by 50%. Well-financed. Could pull back from here but would use that to accumulate.2011-12-06
BUYAmerican Bonanza Gold MiningBZA-T0.540Silver in Nevada. They are in the process of just starting production and as they begin production, there's typically a revaluation. Has performed reasonably well over the last 6 months to a year. Has significantly higher potential.2011-12-06
PAST TOP PICKClaude ResourcesCRJ-T1.820(A Top Pick March 31/11. Down 24.58%.) Saskatchewan production with a high-grade production near Red Lake in Ontario. Still likes.2011-12-06
DON'T BUYNovaGold Resources IncNG-T11.110Has been a management shakeup and investing some assets. Will Barrick (ABX-T) take them out? The ducks are lining up to make a thesis. Will be price dependent. He would not invest in anything on the premise that they will be taken out. There are better places to put your money.2011-12-06
BUYPotash Corp of SaskatchewanPOT-T43.990Like most resource stocks, it has been going down for the better part of a year. However, global fertilizer demand still remains strong. This is an opportunity.2011-12-06
BUYFreeport McMoran Copper & GoldFCX-N40.540Around the current price level would be a reasonable time to get in. He noticed that a lot of commodity stocks were underperforming the commodity but this one started to outperform copper in mid-October.2011-12-06
BUYCalfrac Well Services LtdCFW-T27.250Likes the oil services sector. In spite of all the issues, oil is still trading very strong. Activity level should remain reasonably robust. Stock is pulled back so it's at a level where it is a reasonable buy.2011-12-06
CommentA Comment -- General Comments From an ExpertA Commentary0.020Uranium stocks. This is not on a lot of peoples radar screen at the moment. After the Japanese earthquake, a lot of people focused on other directions. There is probably also a lot of tax loss selling. Uranium will have legs longer term but in the short term, there doesn't seem to be any momentum. If you have the time horizon of a couple of years, it would be a good time to get in.2011-12-06
BUYAurcana Corp.AUN-X0.820A smaller silver producer. They have one silver mine and are attempting to ramp up with another. Good price.2011-12-06
BUYU.S. Silver Corp.USA-T0.495Their ability to ramp up and grow production is what he likes about the story. Also likes the long-term fundamentals for silver.2011-12-06
TOP PICKCoastal EnergyCEN-T13.970Oil/gas producer in Thailand. The real story is their offshore Thailand oil production. Have had some significant success, which is continuing. Have the ability to double their production over the next year or so. Reasonable valuation at about 3X 2012 cash flows.2011-12-06
BUYNew Millennium Capital Corp.NML-T1.420A lot of the small stocks have been hit. This is probably a reasonable level to get in.2011-12-06
TOP PICKIthaca Energy Inc.IAE-T1.990North Sea oil. Between 2011-2013, with the projects they have coming on stream, they'll be tripling their production and cash flows. Cheap valuation.2011-12-06
CommentColossus Minerals Inc.CSI-T6.850Gold developer but not in production yet. Has a project in Brazil. Potential upside could come from some of their other projects that they have going on there. Probably won't do a heck of a lot until production is in the headlights.2011-12-06
PAST TOP PICKAvion GoldAVR-T1.730(A Top Pick March 31/11. Down 1.78%.) Was up until a couple of weeks ago when they had a production shortfall. Will be increasing their production above 50% over the next year. An attractive entry point.2011-12-06
PAST TOP PICKB2Gold Corp.BTO-T3.520(A Top Pick March 31/11. Up 16.78%.) Will have increased production over the next couple of years. Still likes.2011-12-06
BUYAthabaska Oil Sands CorpATH-T13.350Has an oil sands project that is slated to come on in 2014-2015. Great optionality to it and great leverage to the price of oil. At these levels, is pretty reasonable to hold for the next couple of years.2011-12-06
BUYTuscany International DrillingTID-T0.580Likes the story. Service drilling company that is focused in South America some in Africa. Has a fair amount of debt and the stock has been under pressure. Did an acquisition that closed in September. The real story is their up-to-date technology that allows them into more remote areas. 80% of their rigs are contracted over the next year or so. Cash flows are going to ramp up over the next year.2011-12-06
TOP PICKAmerican Bonanza Gold MiningBZA-T0.530An emerging gold producer in New Mexico. Trading cheaply at less than 2X cash flow in 2012. Have the opportunity to significantly increase the size of their resource. Starting to ramp up production.2011-09-01
CommentLake Shore GoldLSG-T2.250Timmins mine was started in Q1 of 2011 and they recently announced production was going to be significantly less than was expected. Mind start-ups are never smooth and you always have blips. There is now a credibility issue with management. Expects this is the bottom and there will be more upside.2011-09-01
CommentA Comment -- General Comments From an ExpertA Commentary0.020Market. Feels we are in a bottoming process here and in the economy so it may take a little time but there are some opportunities out there.2011-09-01
CommentA Comment -- General Comments From an ExpertA Commentary0.020Gold. Feels that gold will still remain relatively strong, above $1500-$1600. He is biased that the gold stocks (versus bullion) will start to rise.2011-09-01
CommentA Comment -- General Comments From an ExpertA Commentary0.020Oil. This is probably in some kind of a range. Not sure it has bottomed yet or not. Might retest its lows in the next couple of months. Europe has some issues to work out as does the US. Economically sensitive commodities, such as oil, could just continue to grind away.2011-09-01
CommentSilvercorp Metals Inc.SVM-T8.230Focused on high-grade silver deposits. Producing in China and recently initiated a dividend of about 1%. Significant cash balance. Three other projects are coming online in the next couple of years. 2 in China and 1 in British Columbia.2011-09-01
TOP PICKBanro Corp.BAA-T4.640Gold. In the development stage in the Democratic Republic of Congo and will prove producing in the 4th quarter of 2011. Moving from a developer tool producer should give them a re-evaluation as they start to generate some cash flows.2011-09-01
PAST TOP PICKStarfield Resources Inc.SRU-T0.045(A Top Pick Jan 12/11. Down 42.85%.) Extremely volatile. Trading significantly below NAV. Should have some significant news in the next 6 months on 3 of their properties2011-09-01
PARTIAL BUYNew Millennium Capital Corp.NML-T1.860This is a reasonable time to start accumulating shares. (Rio Tinto (RIO-N) expects to see iron ore demand double by 2019.)2011-09-01
PAST TOP PICKIthaca Energy Inc.IAE-T2.060(A Top Pick Jan 12/11. Down 26%.) Had some issues with drilling, so he sold this around February. This has been sorted out now and he is looking at it again. Likes the company. Cheap and have great growth profile over the next couple of years.2011-09-01
CommentWestern PotashWPX-T1.330Expect at some point in time there will be a takeover bid from somebody.2011-09-01
BUYArgonaut GoldAR-T6.210One of his larger holdings. Mid-tear gold producer in Mexico. Good management. Recently acquired Pediment Exploration, which will allow them to double their production in 2013-2014.2011-09-01
PAST TOP PICKAllana Potash CorpAAA-T1.390(A Top Pick Jan 12/11. Up 81.82%.)2011-09-01
CommentWestern CopperWRN-T2.920Have 17 million ounces of gold, 8 reserved and 9 inferred as well as 10 billion pounds of copper. Most likely to be taken out at a significant premium from the current price.2011-09-01
TOP PICKTorex Gold ResourcesTXG-T1.630Development stage gold the company in Mexico. Won't be in position to produce for the next couple of years but have 10+ drills working at the moment and will have a formal resource out later this year.2011-09-01
TOP PICKAntrim EnergyAEN-T1.110Oil/gas producer in the North Sea and Argentina. 2012 production should increase by about a third over 2011. Stock is trading at significant discount to NAV. Have significant drilling opportunities coming up in the next 6 months. Fully funded.2011-07-21
BUYA Comment -- General Comments From an ExpertA Commentary0.020Markets have been undergoing a correction since mid-January. There are a lot of events and bad news that is built into the market. Basically, there is a nice bottom forming and we should be going up from here.2011-07-21
CommentA Comment -- General Comments From an ExpertA Commentary0.020Oil. Global oil demand is at an all-time high and there are no significant sources of supply. There will be short-term back-and-forth movements and the bias has to be upwards.2011-07-21
CommentA Comment -- General Comments From an ExpertA Commentary0.020Gold. In the last couple of months, he has been buying gold stocks. They've all had a good move so hasn't been buying in the last week or so but feels they are going to be a leadership group. Typically gold stocks perform pretty well in the 2nd half of the year. Gold tends to track global liquidity and money supply has been ramping up, especially in the US.2011-07-21
CommentA Comment -- General Comments From an ExpertA Commentary0.020Ring of Fire in northern Ontario has a number of smaller companies that have been taken out. There will be infrastructure going in, which will make a lot of the smaller companies economic. You might like to own a basket of these companies.2011-07-21
BUYCline Mining Corp.CMK-T2.200An emerging coal producer in Colorado. Just announced that this year's production is going to be less than expected. Good entry point here.2011-07-21
PAST TOP PICKUranium Participation Corp.U-T6.380(A Top Pick July 27/10. Up 2.05%.)2011-07-21
TOP PICKIberian Minerals CorporationIZN-X0.920Zinc producer in Spain and Peru. One of the biggest things holding the stock back is that they have a number of hedges in place for their production. A significant portion of hedges comes off this year. 2012 cash flow should ramp up significantly. Trading at less than 2X cash flow.2011-07-21
BUYCopper Fox MetalsCUU-X1.980Likes the story and is bullish on copper. This is a good way to get leverage to the price of copper. Have a deposit in BC and will be completing a feasibility study later this year. Reasonably well financed.2011-07-21
BUYMega Uranium LimitedMGA-T0.400Uranium development story in Western Australia. As they move towards production, there will be feasibility studies and financing, which should give a lift in the stock. Uranium is out of favour at the moment but risk/reward is pretty good at this juncture.2011-07-21
BUYThompson Creek MetalsTCM-T9.460Mainly molybdenum but did acquire a BC copper company. Stock has been correcting for the first half of the year but looks like it's at a good level now.2011-07-21
PAST TOP PICKTrinidad Drilling LtdTDG-T10.170(A Top Pick July 27/10. Up 89.26%.)2011-07-21
CommentWestern PotashWPX-T1.450As they continue to achieve their milestones, at some point someone will step in to acquire them. He is bullish on potash.2011-07-21
BUYDonner Metals Ltd.DON-X0.280Primary asset is a zinc development play in Quebec in a joint venture with Xstrata. Recently made an arrangement with Sandstorm giving them financing. Targeted to come into production in 2013. If you have a 2 year timeline until production, this is a good play.2011-07-21
BUYCanacol Energy Ltd.CNE-T0.940Large oil resource in Colombia and production has been increasing significantly. Stock price has not tracked the price of oil. Thinks the stock got over own and expectations is priced into the stock. Reasonable entry point at this level.2011-07-21

TOP PICKChieftan MetalsCFB-T4.500Zinc deposit in BC. Just received a couple permits. Extremely cheap because they have some gold and silver in the project at expect they will enter into some kind of royalty agreement.2011-07-21
PAST TOP PICKCorridor Resources IncCDH-T4.310(A Top Pick April 26/10. Down 7.7%.) In New Brunswick with a couple of large resource plays. Hit a dry hole but are trying to sort it out.2011-05-19
BUY on WEAKNESSInmet MiningIMN-T66.430Reasonable buy at these levels. Expect markets will grind sideways for the next couple of months so accumulate on weakness. Have their Spanish mine coming on next year, which should increase their production. Have a significantly larger mine coming on in 2015-2016 in Panama. Accumulate on weakness.2011-05-19
BUYSemafo IncSMF-T7.730Suffered from 1) seasonal peak in gold and 2) production profile has been increasing in the last couple of years but this year has been fairly flat. Will start to increase again next year. Have been increasing the size of their resource in Burkina Faso significantly. 2012 will be the start of a new leg of growth. Risk/reward is pretty good.2011-05-19
TOP PICKFirst Nickel Inc.FNI-T0.160Own the Lockerbie mine in Sudbury Ontario. Shut down during the financial crisis but are starting production again later this year and into 2012. Criticism has been that they have a short resource life, which is fair, but are drilling to extend that life. Financing is in place. Trading pretty cheaply here.2011-05-19
BUYCline Mining Corp.CMK-T2.890Met coal producer that has just started to produce. One of the best performers off the market bottom. Metallurgical coal, along with copper has been the strongest off the bottom but not sure they will be the leaders in the next rally.2011-05-19
DON'T BUYSterling ResourcesSLG-X1.790Had some poor results and in this market environment no one gets the benefit of the doubt. Will take the market a while to recover. Stocks like this tend to be in the penalty box for awhile so would look elsewhere.2011-05-19
CommentTotal Energy Services IncTOT-T13.820Service sector as a whole has a lot of wind at its back. The pullback in the share price is not unusual in a market like this.2011-05-19
BUYQuadra FNX Mining LtdQUX-T14.670Good way to get exposure to copper. Has hung in quite well in spite of the market. As the market starts to recover, it will do well and will attract some money.2011-05-19
PAST TOP PICKDenison Mines CorpDML-T2.000(A Top Pick April 26/10. Up 55.73%.) Uranium producer in the US and have some interesting properties here. Thinks it has found a bottom here so looks attractive from a longer perspective.2011-05-19
TOP PICKMirabela NickelMNB-T2.160Significant sized nickel project coming on in Brazil. Starting production later this year and ramping up to full production in 2012. Fully financed. Great valuation. People have not been paying attention to nickel, which has an upward bias and not a lot of downside.2011-05-19
CommentMercator Minerals Ltd.ML-T3.050Possible merger with Creston Moly (CMS-X) would be good. Will increase their size. Similar minerals and both in North America.2011-05-19
PAST TOP PICKTwin Butte EnergyTBE-T2.750(A Top Pick April 26/10. Up 101.54%.) About 50% natural gas and 50% oil. In Alberta.2011-05-19
TOP PICKArcan Resources Ltd.ARN-X4.750Oil producer in the western Canadian basin. Their big play is the Swan Hills play in Alberta. Had 100% drilling success this year. Well financed and valuation is good.2011-05-19
BUYCanyon Services GroupFRC-T14.770Drilling sector had a really good run this year and with the higher price of oil and liquids, there is lots of drilling going on. A big driver has been the large resource play with the proliferation of horizontal drilling and fracing and they are benefiting from this. Well financed and have a lot of cash. 80% of equipment is less than a year old.2011-05-19
BUYCopper Mountain MiningCUM-T7.290Likes this one. As companies start production, they do get a rerating from a developer to a producer. Copper prices have gone sideways and down in the last little while. One of the stronger stocks where you want to be positioned.2011-05-19
BUYAllana Potash CorpAAA-T1.670Ethiopia potash. This has been on of the stronger potash stocks out there. It’s shallow and they have only explored about 10% of the property. Good probability of a takeout.2011-05-19
BUYPassport PotashPPI-X0.690As long as you believe that potash prices are going to increase or stabilize, this is a reasonable play. Have a potash resource in Arizona and will be coming out with a formal resource later this year. Early stage project, but are well financed. Close to a lot of infrastructure for product shipments. There will be a lot of volatility.2011-05-19
PAST TOP PICKCorridor Resources IncCDH-T5.320(A Top Pick April 26/10. Down 2.46%.)2011-03-31
TOP PICKClaude ResourcesCRJ-T2.400Gold producer out of Saskatchewan. Been reasonably sleepy for a number of years. Over the last few years they’ve increased the resource size at Seabee and this year their Santoy deposit will allow them to increase production. Have a joint venture at another property, Amisk, which has a significant resource. Also an interesting property at Red Lake close to Goldcorp (G-T).2011-03-31
BUYAlamos Gold IncAGI-T15.340With gold near an all time high, this is a mid to large size company that gives you some upside.2011-03-31
CommentA Comment -- General Comments From an ExpertA Commentary0.020Not bearish on any commodities. Natural gas has been a laggard but thinks the potential is there for a surprise on the upside. From a long-term perspective, uranium is reasonable but the one caveat is that you need to see how the Japanese situation unfolds. If everything is OK, it could be positive for uranium.2011-03-31
BUYCline Mining Corp.CMK-T3.490Emerging coal player meaning they will be ramping up production. A sweet spot as they get a re-rating plus continued strong coal prices. Broken its downtrend. Many coal/copper stocks peaked in 2nd week of January. Earthquake made a lot of investors think the market was starting to correct but a lot of them had already corrected. There has been a rolling correction from mid-January and he looks at as a bull market correction.2011-03-31
BUYSan Gold CorporationSGR-T2.560Manitoba gold. Interesting that gold prices have made record highs while this has had significant corrections. Was a darling for a while because they were finding high grade and increasing the size of their resource. Feels it got overvalued. Also an adjustment from an exploration development company to a producer. Current level is very attractive because of record high gold prices and the significant increase in their production levels.2011-03-31
BUYGreat Panther Resources LtdGPR-T4.160Silver is hitting all time highs and he is biased to higher silver prices. Good way to play silver because they are a smaller producer with a good production profile.2011-03-31
CommentQuadra FNX Mining LtdQUX-T13.510Giant project in Chile that they are still developing plus Sudbury mines. Thinks there’s a lot more demand for copper projects than actual sizable projects out there. Could be a takeover candidate.2011-03-31
CommentLundin Mining Corp.LUN-T8.050Possible merger or acquisition in the works. They are in the mode where they have to surface some value by splitting the company up by various projects or have an increased bid from Equinox (EQN-T) or someone else.2011-03-31
PAST TOP PICKDenison Mines CorpDML-T2.310(A Top Pick April 26/10. Up 41.82%.) Would prefer a stronger stock but from a longer term perspective uranium is going to be fine and this one will participate.2011-03-31
BUYExcellon Res Inc.EXN-T0.970High-grade silver producer in Mexico. They keep expanding the resource. Stock is off probably about 35%-40% from its most recent high. With silver at a new high, it’s just a matter of time as they move the project further and increase the size of the resource.2011-03-31
PAST TOP PICKTwin Butte EnergyTBE-T3.520(A Top Pick April 26/10. Up 118.67%.) About 50-50 in oil and gas. Growing their production base and well financed.2011-03-31
BUYWestern PotashWPX-T1.25020 million warrants dragging the price down? That’s always a tough call. Market correction has been a big factor. This one, like a lot of stocks, has put a nice bottom in and he expects significant upside.2011-03-31
BUYCanacol Energy Ltd.CNE-T1.500Colombian oil play that has been consolidating quite nicely since the fall. Recently did an equity offering and feels it is poised to go significantly higher. About to start drilling on their Guyana properties.2011-03-31
BUYPetroMagdalena EnergyPMD-X0.325Colombia. Gone under a re-organization. Had management issues and stock plunged in early January. Since then have done an equity issue. Brought in a new COO and looking for a new CEO. Feels stock has bottomed. Good level. A “show me” story but a significant asset story.2011-03-31
TOP PICKAvion GoldAVR-T1.680Gold production in Mali in West Africa. 2011 has been an investment year for them and should be able to double the production by 2012. Have some interesting exploration properties also. Have a lot of leverage to gold prices presuming gold prices stay high. Unhedged.2011-03-31
TOP PICKB2Gold Corp.BTO-T2.9802 gold mines in Nicaragua with a significant ramp in production. Significant exploration to increase the size of their resource. Plan is to increase the life of the mine and to increase the amount of high-grade gold.2011-03-31
BUYPerseus Mining LimitedPRU-T3.150Gold assets in Ghana. Not a producer yet. Has been correcting for the last 3 months or so and has come back to a really nice level in the last week. Market is starting to anticipate the move to producer status.2011-03-31
BUYArgonaut GoldAR-T4.730Good way to play the price of gold. Pretty nice production profile.2011-03-31
BUYAllana Potash CorpAAA-T1.840Ethiopian potash play. Had originally recommended it as he was positive on the sector and their valuation was significantly lower than their comps and were doing a lot of drilling and increasing the size of the resource and had only explored about 10% of their land holdings, so potential for upside was significant. At these levels he would consider adding as he still sees significant upside.2011-03-31
BUYMetalore ResourcesMET-T6.250Ramping up production. Had a few slips and starts but valuation is great and the upside looks quite significant. With gold being near a record high, valuation is well supported. Sees significant upside. Located in Quebec.2011-03-31
BUYAgnico-Eagle MinesAEM-T71.590Has had a good little pull back. From a longer term perspective they are focused on growing their resources. Looking to increase production by about 50% in 3-4 years.2011-01-12
BUYBreakwater ResourcesBWR-T (Dead)6.100Has one of the highest percentages of zinc production. Fundamentals for zinc, as with most commodities, are positive.2011-01-12
BUYCanadian Natural RsrcsCNQ-T42.020Recently had upgrader problems so the stock fell back and this is a good opportunity to Buy. Longer-term fundamentals are intact.2011-01-12
BUYEncana CorpECA-T29.220Likes the company and their strategy of focusing on unconventional gas. Doesn’t see any downside in natural gas. If you have a 2-3 year time horizon, you will be well rewarded.2011-01-12
CommentNuvista Energy LtdNVA-T8.710There are a lot of energy stocks that haven’t done anything in the last 1.5 to 2 years and he feels this year is the year where there will be a stronger move.2011-01-12
BUYSemafo IncSMF-T11.230West African gold producer. Up over tenfold off the bottom so the recent correction is not unusual. Will probably consolidate here.2011-01-12
BUYYamana Gold Inc.YRI-T12.180From a large cap perspective this is a good way to play the golds. Reasonable production profile.2011-01-12
STRONG BUYFortune Minerals Ltd.FT-T1.640Have both a coal and cobalt deposits in B.C. Trying to surface value from the coal deposit through a joint venture or something on those lines. This will give them financing for their cobalt project. A lot of value and stock should move significantly higher.2011-01-12
BUYSulliden Gold CorpSUE-T2.430Gold. Not producing but have a resource that they are drilling out. Having a lot of success in increasing the size of the resource. Valuation is still reasonable.2011-01-12
BUYCline Mining Corp.CMK-T4.700Coal. Sector has been strong for the last 1.5 years. Recent Australian floods have exasperated the supply issues. Very strong production profile. Could be a potential takeover target.2011-01-12
PAST TOP PICKDelphi Energy Corp.DEE-T2.100(A Top Pick Jan 20/10. Up 6%.) Didn’t perform as well as he would have liked, so sold his holdings.2011-01-12
BUYOsisko Exploration Ltd.OSK-T14.440Emerging gold producer. Great way to play, as you are not solely dependent on the commodity. Gold probably still has legs but there could be a pull back at some point.2011-01-12
