        <![CDATA[Good stuff MSE.Investor. The prices on the MSE continue to drop but I think the cumulative force of the recent good news we have seen will eventually shift investor perceptions on Mongolia. The government really blew a window of opportunity when they had the knee jerk reaction to Chalco SouthGobi deal and in my view over reacted. many Frontier investors moved on the Myanmar and other areas in SE Asia. It will take some time to regain investors trust but I think Mongolia learned its lesson. News of concentrate exports from Oyu Tolgoi in a couple of months should do the trick. I think this is an excellent buying opporiutunity at these prices. ]]>

        <![CDATA[I do not want to seem critical of the author but it seems we see these type of articles and sentiments at bottoms. To Michaels point the western social democracies are in serious trouble with their unsustainable welfare states and therefore have resorted to debasing of their currencies as governments have done throughout history. I doubt very seriously this time is different, alas it never is different. Gold could drop in the near term, who really knows. Nevertheless the policies that are being pursued by the largest central banks and governments would lead one to believe that the inevitable long term result will be a higher gold price relative to these debased currencies. ]]>

        <![CDATA[Yes I am aware of the potential catalysts, have you read my previous work on MMT. Did it occur to you that some of these may be priced in already? I am not negative on Mart as I said, can you read? I am a speculator and I see more upside in uranium this year. Besides the fact that you cannot kiss all the girls so choices have to made. I am also a contrarian and the outsized gains in the resource arena are made by buying out of favor assets and waiting for them to come back into favor. You gave no reason why you would not touch uranium with a &quot;100' pole' except, I suspect that my view on Mart does not validate your view on the company. I suspect you think by denigrating my view that you get the validation you seek. I am not a psychologist so I could be wrong. Nevertheless I wish you well.]]>

        <![CDATA[There is nothing wrong with the company and yes it has potential when the new pipeline comes online. They might even double or triple production in the next few years. You are also getting a nice dividend while you wait. I bought the stock around $.65 and have done nicely and may return at some point. However it is my view that uranium has better prospects over the next 12-18 months so I need to deploy capital there as I think my returns will be higher. It is just a valuation and capital allocation decision for me.<br/><br/>Energy Fuels results were as expected. If the uranium price moves up to $80+ over the next 18 months as I expect then Energy Fuels will do just fine.<br/><br/>Have not heard of ORT.TO but I may take a look at it. ]]>

        <![CDATA[World demand is approximately 180 million pounds per year and mine supply is approximately 140 million pounds per year. The Fukishima disaster caused a release by Japan of around 25 million pounds into the market that caused the price to drop last year. Now that the Abe government is poised to restart the majority of Japans reactors that will need to reverse. In addition Megatons to megawatts ends this year which removes additional supply from the market. The author did state that at current prices not enough capital will come into uranium mining to relieve the supply demand imbalance until we see prices around $80 per pound at least. ]]>

        <![CDATA[&quot;And Mongolia's future seems murky, to say the least, at the same time that it's virtually impossible to go over and check on what's actually happening on the ground there.&quot;<br/><br/>It is very easy to go to Mongolia and check on what's going on. Harris is an open book and I had no trouble meeting with him, although I am a shareholder. I visited several brokerages, real estate firms, banks, and businesses and everyone was open and willing to speak frankly and earnestly. Nothing is a slam dunk but I can say with certainty that ten years from now Mongolian per capita GDP will be significantly higher than it is now. That will result in higher real estate prices and a higher capitalization for Mongolian Stock Exchange.]]>

        <![CDATA[I do not want to get into an argument but I was being sarcastic. Where in the world does the government &quot;look after the best interest of the people&quot;. Lets not even get started on democracy, that great fiction where everybody attempts to live off their neighbor via the ballot box.]]>

      <title>2012 Review And What I Am Doing In 2013</title>

        <![CDATA[It is interesting you mention Khan Resources. I have dealt with Russians and Ukrainians before and anywhere they are involved I usually go the other way. Sergey Kiriyenko is the head of Rosatom and Atomenergoprom and I have been watching him slowly consolidate power and control over nuclear fuel and uranium resources in former Soviet satellites. This Khan saga seems like it is part of this. However I am not as up to speed fully on it so maybe I am wrong. I do know that Kiriyenko is a Putin crony and I also know that he has stated that Russia wants to have a level of dominance in nuclear power like they do in oil. Take that for its worth. <br/><br/>The Centamin situation is pretty interesting as the share price got shelled recently due to some issues the company had with the Fuel minister cutting off diesel to the plant and the customs service refusing an export license for Centamin's gold which caused a working capital crisis and necessitated a short shutdown at the mine. Nevertheless it appears the right palms were greased and some ministers changed out and now everything is back on schedule. Meet the new boss, same as the old boss I guess. I like Centamin and picked up shares when it got nuked and it has recovered nicely. The thing with these kind of companies operating in these areas is that you have to approach it with your eyes wide open and leave your western concepts of fair and just at the door. These places are mostly run by corrupt people looking to get themselves set up financially. Why else are they politicians to help the people, dont make me laugh. So in order to do business you have to play by the rules as they are are not the way you want them to be. If you can handle the occasional ass whopping and buy when others panic you can do nicely. That is my view, but I am a cynic so take that into account. ]]>

      <title>Vietnam Attracting Investment Attention</title>

        <![CDATA[This is a legitimate concern. As with many emerging markets and frontier markets Vietnam was severely damaged economically during the 2008 financial crisis. These countries have weak banking systems and are very reliant on exports. So when the world wide crisis hit they got slammed very hard and it has taken longer to get stabilized. However, the future is in Asia and Vietnam is one of the diamonds in the rough. My view is that the country is now doing the right things i.e. getting inflation under control and de-regulating the economy. This will lead to economic growth and translate into higher per capita GDP growth over the long term. The divergence of the NAV from the market price is pretty extreme right now so if I want exposure to Vietnam, which I do, I think that buying assets at a discount is the way to go. It is also my view that money is beginning to flow back into these emerging markets and we will see NAV growth because of this. It is important to remember that an asset class or particular market can fall out of favor and move from overvaluation to undervaluation and stay there for some period of time. I believe that was the case with Vietnam and now it is coming back into favor and is seeing inflows of capital. The management of VOF understand this and has been buying back shares as that is the best use of capital right now.]]>

        <![CDATA[I got long for a trade last week, mostly based on the commissioning of the concentrator which occurred today by the way. We should be seeing a steady amount of good news from the mine site over the next few months as commissioning finishes up and throughput begins to increase. I believe Rio will be keen to report good news from the mine and processing plant. I have also been getting longer on the MSE. Cheers!]]>

        <![CDATA[Thanks for this Meltdown. It seems that almost a witchcraft mentality has taken over in the west regarding nuclear power. The facts are it has almost become irrelevant what people in the declining west do regarding nuclear power. The growth is all in the emerging markets which want the benefits of reliable electricity and what that brings. The longer the price stays down here at $45 spot and $60 long term the larger the eventual rise in prices will be when the supply overhang from Japan gets worked off. ]]>
