I hope so, I picked up another 25k share block @ 1.85 today. So far I have flipped NAK for about $20K in profits over the last six months and hope to continue the good fortune trading NAK. At first I thought I had missed the NAK train this morning when I saw pre market News jack the price up. However as soon as I read the PR, I knew it was not what the" Nak to the Moon" $20 per share with vacation victory parties in Tahiti crowd was expecting. NAK will move up again. Theissen has more up his sleeve than just this announcement today.
There should be some upside now to NAK once the street digests todays News. I think there is probably more News in the pipeline to follow up on todays PR. I am looking for a move back up to the 2.50 levels again.
I have a feeling NAK has another announcement coming. CEO did say "partners" plural, during his last interview.
I tried to warn, but no one would listen. Maybe another partner will be announced for the other 50% and save the day for NAK.
The ball is in Pebble’s court to put an actual plan together and file a permit application, said Halford, something he doesn’t think may ever happen, let alone by December.
BBNC (Bristol Bay Native Corporation) says it's not interested in working on a project it has openly opposed since 2009.
Metrokin said Pebble was adamant that in 2017 it would resolve its lawsuit with EPA, find a new partner, and file for permits. He acknowledged the company achieved its goal with EPA, but is skeptical they will make progress on the other two priorities, despite Pebble's public assurances.
And your point is? If they voted it down 3 years ago, why would they not vote it down now? Public sentiment in Alaska regarding Pebble has not changed. If the "Save the Salmon" initiative is on the ballot next election, Alaskans who voted against it three years ago, will vote against it again.
I am so glad you posted that, because that way of thinking is exactly why Alaskans will vote down the People Project. Any potential JV partner can see that the residents of Alaska do not want the Pebble project, and and JV will need to know FOR SURE, that the "Save the Salmon" initiative that will be on the next election ballot will not be passed by the people of Alaska before they commit to billions of dollars in a project that may be dead on arrival.
In fact, the Bristol Bay Forever initiative won every single voting precinct in Alaska. It is now the law of this state, overwhelmingly endorsed by the voters, and unmistakable in its clarity and purpose. For years, numerous polls have shown broad-based opposition to the Pebble Mine within the Bristol Bay Region — among Alaskan Natives, commercial fishermen, businesses, and political perspectives across the spectrum. Numbers like this in opposition to development are rarely seen in this state, as any informed investor understands.
Not so fast - Seems to me that statement smacks of hypocrisy. What do the miners as you say "rape the environment" for? For the profits of greedy shareholders who buy the stock and dream of getting rich with no effort on their part. So which are worse, the fishermen, farmers and ranchers who supply food, or the miners who supply metal from the ground, and riches for their fat cat corporate shareholders?
Yes, and chicken farmers are in business to KILL chickens, and cattle ranchers are in the business to KILL cows, and pig farmers are in the business to KILL pigs, and on and on. So what's the point? Once again, as far as the Salmon goes, they are protected from overfishing or destruction/pollution of their spawning grounds. Otherwise according to your theory, they would already be extinct due to the evil, selfish, bloodthirsty KILLER fishermen.
Whales aren't fish, they are Mammals. And it doesn't matter what I want or what I am for or against, it is what the people of Alaska want. I don't really care one way or the other, I just post what's out there on both sides of the argument.
Actually, miners are much more dangerous if the mine will destroy, or damage spawning grounds of the fish. Are you implying that fishing should be banned world wide because fishermen are causing fish to become extinct? To protect certain species of fish, Governments place limits on fishing in certain waters, and protect spawning areas, just like they put limits on mining near certain waters, or close enough to tributaries where pollution may negatively affect spawning grounds of a specific fish.
The people of Alaska understand this, and have voted overwhelmingly in the past to ban the Pebble Project. That's why If the "Save the Salmon" initiative gets on the next ballot in Alaska, the environmentalists will win and the Pebble Project will be voted down by the people.
Duhh... there will be no fishing of salmon, period, "industrial," (whatever that means), commercial, or otherwise, if there are no salmon to fish.
To propose that the entire economy of Alaska is dependent on one copper mine, a mine that is now being proposed as a "much smaller version" of the original, is patently ridiculous. Especially since that particular mine could threaten the massive salmon industry of Alaska, a loss which would have a much more devastating effect on the economy of Alaska than the loss of one "smaller version" mine.
In 2014, 65 percent of voters state-wide approved the Bristol Bay Forever initiative prohibiting mining projects in the Bristol Bay watershed that threaten salmon or their habitat.
In fact, the Bristol Bay Forever initiative won every single voting precinct in Alaska. It is now the law of this state, overwhelmingly endorsed by the voters, and unmistakable in its clarity and purpose. For years, numerous polls have shown broad-based opposition to the Pebble Mine within the Bristol Bay Region — among Alaskan Natives, commercial fishermen, businesses, and political perspectives across the spectrum. Numbers like this in opposition to development are rarely seen in this state, as any informed investor understands.
And the opposition is not going to go away. It has been said that before the Pebble Mine came along, many of us had never met a mine we did not like.
As a resource state, mining is an industry we need and depend on. But we do not need the Pebble Mine, or any mine like it, in the headwaters of Bristol Bay. As a lifelong Alaskan, I am determined to continue to work toward stopping it.
No one ever expected this battle to be easy, but it is a battle Alaskans have to win, however long it takes, for our state, our salmon, our communities, our people and our future.
OPINION: Alaska's future doesn't need Pebble Mine project to thrive

The will of the people of Alaska has nothing to do with Democrats or Republicans, it has to do with the people of Alaska rejecting the Pebble Project in a referendem vote that will be on the ballot in the next election.
Actually, all that matters is if the people of Alaska vote the Pebble Project down when it is presented as a referendum on the next election ballot.

So what. Speaking in Alaska at a first anniversary gala celebrating the 45th presidency is even better because Alaska is ground zero for everything that is happening with Northern Dynasty Minerals -
On Jan. 6, Alaska Republicans will host a first-anniversary gala celebrating the 45th presidency.
Last year, Bob Gillam was the keynote speaker and businessman Scott Hawkins, now a gubernatorial candidate, was the emcee.
This year Mark Hamilton, executive vice president of external affairs for the Pebble Partnership, will be the keynote
Thiessen must have heard me - price just popped back over $2.00
Theissen deserves a swift kick in the teeth if nothing happens this quarter yet again, after shooting off his mouth for two straight quarters that the JV partner deal would be closed.
I've seen them.
Ok, so here is something "factually correct." The site is about 100 miles from the prized fishing grounds to the south west. However, there are all kinds of creatures, including birds, fish, bears, and deer that are not 100 miles from the mine site.
It's all misinformation and environmentalist propaganda. The mine site is 100 miles away from any salmon.
He's a politician. He will go where the money leads him like all politicians end up doing. Pebble means huge revenues for Alaska. Governors love revenues.

Mining News: More Alaska mines

Dude - actually you did declare it:
It will be a news release in early am. 30m short. It will go to 10.
just so you know we live in an electronic world these days. Computers are used for these transactions.
It might be released Early A.M. and it might not. It could be released during trading hours, or after market close. Why are you so sure News will be released in early A.M.? Do you have any information from the company that supports that declaration? Maybe it is unfamiliar to you, however experienced traders have seen times when trading in a stock is briefly halted during the trading day when something like a huge News event hit during trading hours, and buying volume spikes so high so fast that a brief halt is necessary to make sure trading can be conducted in an orderly fashion.
I'm thinking possible trading halt, and then minimum $3.50 to $4.00 initial price offered when trading resumes, depending on partnership details. Stock could then run to $5.00 to $6.00 short term.
Trades hitting @ 2.05 after hours.
2.00 x 2.01 with heavy buying coming in end of day.
The Pebble Partnership is set to file for permits to develop an “environmentally-optimized” mine at this world-class copper deposit by the end of the year.
Beischer pointed out that there are six major mining projects – Donlin Gold, Pebble, Livengood, Arctic, Bokan Mountain and Palmer – that are in the advanced exploration and development stage.
“I really think the state government should do what it can to move the ones that deserve to get into production along as quickly as possible,” the mining executive said.
“It is time to invigorate the mining industry – it is time to make it a cornerstone of a comprehensive economic development plan,” he added.
“I am incredibly optimistic about the future of mining in Alaska,” he said. “We have some great projects in the pipeline and hopefully we can bring those into fruition and we don’t have a production gap in the future and we can contribute to the fiscal stability of this state.”

Hopefully, what Thiessen is currently "constrained" in talking about, will be part of the announcement that he seems confident will be coming in December.
I also heard this at the end of the presentation that many may have missed -
I am constrained about what I can say about repartnering, but just stay tuned with everybody, we are working very hard on it
