Another thing I think shareholders really need to keep in mind and take to heart which myself and others have stated before…This is not the old Medinah.
Please try to break yourselves of all the old bad habits that evolved over years of poor communication, frustration and rumor-mongering.
Did anyone know Kevin was in Santiago until they read it on Facebook or here? You’re lying if you did. There are many shareholders that are close to Kevin, but they were rightfully kept in the dark about the trip. Isn’t it refreshing to be pleasantly surprised and not exploited by artificially heightened expectations and rumors? In the old days, we’d all be salivating in anticipation of every trip and what news would come of it. Les used our gullibility and need for news to his advantage and we were all patsies for the most part because of our need for being ahead of the curve on developments in MDMN…whether they were true or not.
I can assure you it is no longer necessary to read too deeply into the words in these PRs or what is posted on the website. Gone are the PRs that were written ambiguously or contradictory. If there is a mistake or something unclear in the PR, I know it will be corrected or further explained by Kevin…publicly, with clarity being the only intent. We no longer have intentional ambiguity in the PRs, nor do we have Les Price to add his own color commentary to get shareholders’ juices artificially frothed up. As most know, Kevin is plain spoken, matter-of-fact and honest. So take the words in the PRs exactly as they are written. There is nothing hidden. Don’t try to dream up scenarios that aren’t there. That was the folly of the old MDMN shareholder base, myself included. Nobody is going to be ahead of the curve on information that is disseminated. That’s the way legitimate companies operate.
Additionally, there is no bogeyman awaiting around the corner. That’s more directed at the I-Hubbers whose commentary continues as if there is another shoe to drop. Well, here’s an update for you…that shoe has already dropped! And now we just have to wait while Medinah digs out of this hole.
Many might still be unwilling to admit it, but this was a pump-and-dump scam orchestrated by Price and JJ, though over the backdrop of a very promising property. Why they couldn’t make a go of it honestly is still beyond me, but mining is difficult and they were in way over their heads. I guess orchestrating a scam was easier and they thought they’d never get caught. JJ was just shuffling properties around all over the place at whatever whim was necessary at the time. CDCH got burned big time by JJ’s disregard for contractual arrangements.
Shareholders have to forget the past (meaning the old MDMN) and hit the reset button as if this is a completely new investment. That doesn’t mean to let your guard down. It just means you shouldn’t allow yourself to be lured in by the old toxic ways of the past.
We should all know by now that Kevin is doing his best to clean up this mess, but there are some significant hurdles in our way. The litigation looks promising in Medinah’s favor, but nobody knows the outcome for sure. Medinah has to continue trying to claw back shares that were illegally sold to improve our share structure. And we have to hope that Auryn continues discovering new opportunities and begins producing at a reliable level to further instill confidence in the mountain and their ability to monetize it.
