"If the company does not pay dividends --- Who gets the money?"
They will spend it on developing other property`s and buying more claims. Very few company`s payout dividends on common stock,prefered stocks payout well.
I`m still waiting on seeing the mini-plant contraption working before I add any more.

PERTH, WESTERN AUSTRALIA--(Marketwire - Aug. 22, 2011) - Paladin Energy Ltd. (TSX:PDN - News; ASX:PDN - News; "Paladin" or the "Company") is pleased to announce the signing of a series of term uranium sales agreements for output from the Langer Heinrich Stage 3 expansion.
The agreements have been signed with three new customers in the United States and further strengthens Paladin's already significant presence within the U.S. nuclear market.
Production commitments from the new agreements total more than 2.8Mlb U3O8 with deliveries beginning in 2012 and extending through to 2016. Contractual pricing provisions incorporate both fixed and base (escalated) mechanisms ranging from the low- to -mid-$60's per pound U3O8.
Paladin has recently been engaging with a number of parties in relation to new sales contracts and reasonably expects to enter into further term agreements in the coming months.
The Langer Heinrich Stage 3 expansion is near completion with commissioning and staged ramp-up progressing well. Langer Heinrich Stage 3 will increase annual output from 3.7Mlb U3O8 to 5.2Mlb U3O8.
Commenting on these new sales agreements, Paladin's Managing Director/CEO John Borshoff said:
"We have consistently stated that nuclear fuel buyers continue to recognise the need to secure uranium supplies for the medium and longer term despite the price volatility and perceived uranium market uncertainties caused by events in Japan. These contracts, signed at prices well in excess of the prevailing spot price, only serve to further support this message," Mr Borshoff said.
"Importantly, these agreements are in keeping with Paladin's long-standing uranium contracting strategy of developing a risk-managed portfolio of term sales agreements incorporating various delivery price mechanisms including defined prices as well as market price exposure at time of delivery.
Anyone buying this before the plant is up and running? They should be making lots of money with silver so high.
So the way I read this PR is they take a pickup load of the on sight "dirt" to BC and test the process at up to 110lbs an hour and take the waste "dirt" and see if the permit "huc-mucks" will OK for dumping on the property without any added step.
I know it`s a blunt summery but that`s what I get from it.
I requested a map with drill hole locations weeks ago and the IR lady said they would put one on the company websight,the timeline has come and gone but we know they are busy so we get it when they have the time to do it (IMO)

Nordic American Tankers Limited ("NAT" or "the Company") (NYSE: NAT - News) today announced that the Company has declared a dividend of $0.30 per share for 2Q2011which is the same as for 1Q2011. The relative position of the Company improved in 2Q2011 compared with many of its competitors. NAT is in a very strong financial position and must be differentiated from shipping companies with weak balance sheets. These levered companies are unable to maintain their dividend payments in the weak market which prevailed during 2Q2011. Furthermore, NAT has a large credit facility available as explained later in this report. NAT is firmly committed to protecting its underlying earnings and dividend potential.
The Company will pay the dividend on or about August 31st, 2011 to shareholders of record as of August 19th, 2011. Starting in the fall of 1997, when NAT acquired its first three vessels, the company has paid a quarterly dividend for 56 consecutive quarters. Including the dividend for 2Q2011, the total dividend payment over this period amounts to $42.44 per share.
During the fourth quarter of 2010 our operating fleet stood at 15 vessels. By the end of October this year the Company expects to have 19 trading vessels, bolstering our earnings and dividend capacity following this expansion. Our fleet will include two newbuildings from Samsung Shipyard in Korea, one to be delivered in August and the second in October. Both newbuildings are fully financed. The Company remains committed to its strategy of accretive growth through acquisitions and a strong balance sheet. This disciplined approach is particularly important in a soft mark

Vodafone to Pay GBP2 Billion Dividend on Verizon Agreement
Q
By Ben Livesey - Jul 28, 2011 2:45 PM PT
Vodafone Group Plc (VOD), the world’s largest mobile-phone company, said it will pay a special dividend of 2 billion pounds ($3.3 billion) to shareholders in February, after the board of Verizon Wireless, in which Vodafone has a 45 percent stake, agreed to pay a $10 billion dividend.
Vodafone’s share of the Verizon Wireless dividend will be $4.5 billion and the U.K. company will receive the payment on Jan. 31, it said in an e-mailed statement today. The balance of the payment from Verizon after Vodafone makes the special payment to shareholders will be used to reduce net debt, it said.
“Our long-term partnership in Verizon’s strong and successful wireless business has seen the value of our investment increase significantly over recent years,” Vodafone Chief Executive Officer Vittorio Colao said in the statement. “The dividend from Verizon Wireless allows us not only to reward our own shareholders with an immediate and sizeable cash return, but also to continue to reinvest in our business to improve our customers’ experience, further strengthen our competitive position and create additional value for shareholders.”
Vodafone Chairman John Bond told shareholders in London this week that the prospect for a dividend from Verizon Wireless, its U.S. venture, looks “very good.” Vodafone has retained its stake in Verizon Wireless even after failing to receive a dividend from the company since 2005, while partner Verizon Communications Inc. (VZ) has focused on paying down debt.
RealNetworks, Inc. Announces Special Dividend and Reverse Stock Split in Connection with Strategy Review
- Company continues internal strategic review
- Cash distribution of $1.00 per share
- One-for-four reverse stock split
SEATTLE, July 28, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Digital media software and services company RealNetworks, Inc. (Nasdaq: RNWK) today said that its Board of Directors has progressed far enough in its strategic review of the company's businesses and strategy to make two announcements regarding its capital structure.
First, the company has declared a special dividend of $1.00 per share of its common stock, payable on August 23, 2011, to holders of record as of the close of business August 9, 2011.
Second, the company has decided to implement a one-for-four reverse stock split.
"Over the past four months we have undertaken a thorough, top-to-bottom review of RealNetworks current businesses and future growth opportunities," said Rob Glaser, Founder and Chairman of RealNetworks. "We have completed the first phase of that analysis and are now putting together what we believe to be a very compelling strategy and plan to reinvigorate RealNetworks and to set the company up for renewed growth.
"As part of this analysis, we believe that the company has excess cash relative to our anticipated future operational or strategic needs," Mr. Glaser said. "Accordingly, we are choosing to return some of this cash to shareholders. After the payment of this dividend, we expect to retain sufficient capital to pursue growth both through new product introductions and acquisitions."
In consideration of the stock price change that is expected to result from the dividend of a significant amount of the company's cash, the board also approved a one-for-four reverse split of RealNetworks common stock, which it expects to implement at the close of business on August 30, 2011.
"We believe that the reverse split may make our shares more accessible to a broader universe of institutional investors, reduce shareholder transaction costs in buying our stock, and bring our share count into line with other companies our size," said Mr. Glaser.
"The RealNetworks Board has rigorously reviewed our capital structure and believes that a dividend and reverse split is in the best interests of all RealNetworks' shareholders," said Eric Benhamou, RealNetworks' Lead Independent Director.
The cash dividend is expected to total approximately $136.8 million, and the dividend payment will be made on August 23, 2011. As of June 30, 2011, RealNetworks had $328 million in cash and short-term investments, $66 million of which is held overseas. The company expects to have approximately 34.2 million shares outstanding after the reverse split, compared with 136.8 million as of June 30, 2011.
A portion of the distribution may be taxable as dividend income to the extent paid out of a U.S. shareholder's pro rata share of RealNetworks' current or accumulated earnings and profits. The portion of the distribution that will be taxable as dividend income will not be determined until after December 31, 2011. RealNetworks can make no assurances as to the tax treatment of the special dividend. Shareholders should consult their own tax advisors on such tax treatment, which varies by type of shareholder as well as by a shareholder's respective tax basis and holding period. Additional information on the dividend, the reverse split and the tax treatment can be found in a special FAQ on the company's investor website at http://investor.realnetworks.com.
"Regular way" trading in RealNetworks common stock is expected to be "ex-dividend" on the NASDAQ Global Select Market beginning on August 24, 2011. Persons who purchase RealNetworks common stock on the exchange on or after the "ex-dividend" date will not be entitled to receive the special dividend payment. RealNetworks common stock is expected to start trading on a reverse stock split-adjusted basis on or about market open on August 31, 2011.
