Sorry sorry sorry I don't want the facts to upset anybody's feelings!

Copper global usage will be over 200%-413%! We need to supply enough copper until 2050, but only have enough supply until 2036. They will launching space mining missions to asteroid starting 2020 according to NASA.
Bingo they're all sing the same song now!

Follow the media's bouncing ball!
They all are saying the same thing.
With a police presence in the area, a single protester held a sign outside Duluth's Kitchi Gammi Club over the noon hour Tuesday.
Inside, PolyMet CEO Jon Cherry, while addressing business leaders at a Duluth Area Chamber of Commerce-sponsored luncheon, didn't acknowledge the picket. But he did offer assurances to anyone concerned about Minnesota's likely first copper-nickel mine that it will help to meet the growing global demand for precious metals and that it will operate responsibly and without harming the St. Louis River, its watershed, Lake Superior, or any parts of the environment.
"There's a responsibility no matter where you mine to do it correctly and appropriately and to protect the environment," Cherry said. "I am 100 percent confident we'll be protective of the St. Louis River watershed and Lake Superior and downstream. I think you could actually take our design and put it anywhere and be just as protective of the environment."
The Minnesota Department of Natural Resources agreed that PolyMet can mine safely. In March 2016, it signed off on PolyMet's plans. Its landmark determination followed an exhaustive environmental-review process that spanned 10 long years and included ordered changes and improvements to the project.
Transitioning now from environmental review to how the mine near Babbitt and the processing plant near Hoyt Lakes will be built and will operate, three of nearly two dozen necessary permits already are in hand, Cherry said.
"It's been a long haul. We truly are on the doorstep now," he said. "We answered all the questions, checked all the boxes, and we're moving forward."
That's good news for all of us who use metals-filled cell phones and other devices in our everyday lives, who support renewable wind and solar energy, and who like it that the production of fuel-efficient electric cars is on the rise. We can be further encouraged if we're concerned that much of the metals from around the globe are being mined now with little to no environmental regulation or concern for workers' safety.
Cell phones have 100 different metals in them.
"It has to come from somewhere," Cherry said.
Additionally, every wind turbine requires 11,000 pounds of copper. Solar panels are similarly copper-intensive. And the motors in electric cars have more than four times the copper as traditional car engines, he said.
An estimated $60 billion of copper mining is being developed to meet the growing demand; PolyMet is the only proposed mine in the U.S. as far along in its development as the permitting phase.
WHY WE DIG
Economic geologists are fond of pointing out that if you can’t grow it, you have to mine it. And indeed, mined products are everywhere in modern life — in tin cans, smart phones, and even toothpaste (which contains crushed up minerals like calcite and mica). The USGS estimates that, in a lifetime, the average American will use more than 5,600 pounds of aluminum, almost 20,000 pounds of phosphate rock (mostly as crop fertilizer) and nearly 30,000 pounds of iron ore, to say nothing of all the plastics made from oil that had to be extracted from the ground.
The metals in question at Pebble include gold and molybdenum, but the biggest product would be copper. Today, humans consume more than 20 million metric tons of copper per year, making it one of the most widely used metals. Most copper goes into wiring, plumbing, and infrastructure, including bridges, water treatment plants, and the electrical grid. Copper is also used in building construction, appliances, and electronic equipment, among other applications.
It's coming!

Have a happy 4th of July everybody! I'm moving on to my next project.
See ya at the PPP!!!:/)
Good Luck)
Here is one of the reasons why we will have mining here in Minnesota!

Amazing! We have commercial asking for money to help children starving in Africa, suffering animals in cages, and radio ads on starving children in the United States, but when it comes to the poor families, economy and jobs in Northern Minnesota everybody go to silent running. These leaders need to get to a news venue and tell the the story of Americas greatest hidden story of the largest wealth discovery in the world being suppressed by the media and keeping the population under siege by the environmentalists and the state of Minnesota.
You could not make this story up! But it's the real thing!
Ha ha ha!
Greg we found them!
Last week, headlines all over the US talked about how terrible Trumpcare is. We sat down with a nurse to hear exactly how this bill will affect hundreds of thousands of Minnesotans. Minnesotans everywhere know how Trumpcare will harm them and their loved ones and use #ProtectOurCare to support Senators Amy Klobuchar and Al Franken in standing strong against this bill.
They are looking for active members.

Greg you got what you asked for the administration is talking about your mine up there! Water just gave you the tools to stop the madness with lawsuits from the enviro's. You guys need a local spokes person to go on Fox and tell your story on how the Iron Range was threaten to be sued if they try end to bring jobs to the Iron Range.
It seems to always comes down to follow the money$
Is there a link?
Everything still points to the state of Minnesota needing the LTV processing plant!

I'm sorry your right at the lodge, not Canada.
Nolan was there, Mills to. I talked to many people up there.
And I said that you could tell the officers and employees were a little bit tired and beat up, from all the hurdles they had to jump thru, with the EIS.
You need a Fox News!!! Then the politicians will be forced to respond.
IMHO
Good
Luck
Greg!
I did not see politician, they were bankers I believe. The presentation given by the officers and employees was amazing. It was a no brainier to invest in Polymet. Something seems to be holding our investment back? We all need the answers!
I was ticked then I tried to retract it but ihub would not let me even under the fifteen minute timeline.
It's not you Greg the people up there are in pain. They have no face or voice in the twin cities. If they had a face and voice here thing would be different! But they will not fight for themselves!
Do you guys remember the canoeing protest on the river! A ton of mine supporters showed up and and they left the iron range.
They all need to do that down in the twin cities all year long at every event. Show us that you care about your lively hood and your families and neighbors! Start it today no matter what it cost you to get down to the cities. The people up there are scraping the bottom, and only have one direction to go and that is up!! So start moving that way!
IMHO
Excellent ideas? Without actions are worthless!
Crash the party! Say hello
Thank them for how you feel!
What did Obama say? Oh yea! Get in their ?
You may not be able to get tickets to some events, just stop on by and say Hi!!!! Let them know you care about them!
They will be thankful you stopped by!
They will remember you, and they know you will remember them the next election!
Have yourself a good time, you know they are having a good time on your dime!
I believe I posted this after the session.
Here is a invite to the people of Minnesota who paid the taxes to improve the Capital. You are all invited Gov Dayton says!
Capitol Grand Opening
Minnesota State Capitol
Minnesota is planning a party! After four years, the Minnesota State Capitol restoration project is almost complete. To celebrate, Gov. Mark Dayton and Lt. Gov. Tina Smith are inviting Minnesotans to attend the official State Capitol grand opening during the weekend of Aug. 11-13.
The event will offer something for everyone, including a ribbon-cutting ceremony, fireworks, concerts, demonstrations by artisans, behind the scenes tours and much more. The Capitol Grand Opening website has full details.
Thanks!

What's going on with level two first purchase my chart is showing me red green and grey. I've never seen that before?
If the SEC is investigating the manipulation of Polymet it would be best not to give away there findings on the board. You may get involved in something you will regret later. We all want to find out who and why the stock is trading so low and weird. Let them do their job, and we don't want to warn the manipulator this is coming.
This is what our board is facing too! That why we are so unique we all believe in doing the right thing for the right reason!
hero (masculine) or heroine (feminine) is a person or main character of a literary work who, in the face of danger, combats adversity through impressive feats of ingenuity, bravery or strength, often sacrificing their own personal concerns for a greater good.
You are looking at maybe 3% of Minnesotans are any kind of environmentalist, that's why I keep pounding the drums. (They don't have any numbers)They are alway coming to your home and telling you what you can or cannot do! It's time you come to there home and tell them to stay out of your neighborhood. Over run every event they have. It time to change the rules in your favor. IMHO Make America's IRON RANGE GREAT AGAIN!!!!!
I keep saying! All the Northerners need to get off their tails and fight for there families and their jobs. Load up all there cars, trackers, trucks, the small-cities should join together and hire the bus companies the drive the mother and children families to all the liberal events in the twin cities with pro mining signs. Get the union management off there dead Butts and put the union workers on buses make a stand like they did back in the 1970s before they all became politically Correct Wimps. I believe if they put a family face on the mining issue it would take away the Attacks on mining here in Minnesota.
IMHO
Go Iron Rangers!!
Thank you Greg
I got into this investment by a bet of dinner with a friend I told him there would never be any Copper mining in the BWCA. Then I went out to prove him wrong, and then I found that article I have mentioned in past 09-06-2012. Then I new I was wrong and lost the bet! Since then I have researched every connection to this mine in effect to 5000 hours and my research was over 80% correct. You are correct the big business will mine here and all the five states included. I get the sense that the Glencores Rio's of the worlds would like to put the small investors out of business, but I believe this board will hold there feet to the fire, because the board is like no other board we are all united to see this investment thru to the end! We are all owners with our shares and with that we have legal rights and protections from being lied and prayed a pond by any entity's that may want to take our life saving illegally. Gregg complement covers all the members of this board because with out each of you my research would not be complete with out your insight pieces of the puzzle. You all have the answers we need to finish this project to the end!
IMHO
Thank you every body for your support!
Great find Greg!
It helps to put a value of the PLM stock.
The appearances of our news papers and media portraying all the Iron Range "part time" recreational groups concerns on mining on the range. The media wants everybody to think this is how all Minnesotan are thinking and standing behind the anti mining movement in reality the Twin Citizen are all on summer break! If you drive in the cities on a Friday rush hour compared to Monday rush hour it's a breeze to drive Friday, they don't care if there is mining all they care about is there phones and iPads. As was stated before on this forum the Iron Rangers need to take control of their industries, job, income, taxes, and there politicians. The groups of people who are bulling the iron range people and threatening the towns up north with lawsuits if they defend their lively hoods, this is extortion and the last time I checked it's against the law. Rally everybody up there and bring them to every event concerning the range, this year and show the media and the anti's they will not win!!!!!!!!
IMHO
Go Iron Rangers!
:/) yep!
