It will be up to a Court of Law and a Judge to determine if the charges against the company are true or false. Not just what the company says is true, and not just what the plaintiffs say is true. And surely not what posters on a message board say is true.

“Pimped” Mining Stock ‘Could Go To Zero’
Posted on February 27, 2017 by The Doc
Fund Manager Dave Kranzler Warns This Stock “Pimped By Stansberry/Casey, Martin Katusa and Rick Rule” Could Go to ZERO:
From PM Fund Manager Dave Kranzler:
Many of my subscribers asked my view on Northern Dynasty (NAK), developer of the Pebble copper-gold-moly-silver deposit in the Bristol Bay are of southwest Alaska. I figured newsletters were pumping it. I owned NAK for brief period in 2004 before I decided I didn’t like the way it “smelled.” Thirteen years later it smells just as bad.
I found out the Stansberry/Casey marketing juggernaut team was pimping NAK, as well as Martin Katusa and Rick Rule. Upon a closer look, I could not find one redeeming reason to own NAK.
If I had looked at it when it was trading at $3.40 at the end of January, I would have put it in my Short Seller’s Journal (NAK is now at $1.61 and likely headed toward zero). I also knew Kerisdale Capital recently slammed NAK, but after the firm’s highly misleading and incorrect hatchet-job on First Majestic, I don’t trust Kerisdale.
Over the years, I have learned the hard way that “holy grail” projects in geographically difficult areas enveloped with an extreme degree of political risk have a high probability of ending with a bad result for my investment. NAK is one of these situations that I am recommending that subscribers avoid. – Excerpt from the latest issue of the Mining Stock Journal
In this week’s issue of the Mining Stock Journal, I present several compelling reasons why NAK is likely nonviable. You can read my analysis plus receive all of the back-issues using this link: Mining Stock Journal
Your review of NAK is quite timely, given a class action lawsuit, a Seeking Alpha analysis, and the fact it was highly promoted at the 2015 Silver Summit in SF which I witnessed personally. The NAK website has Stansbury and others refuting the Seeking Alpha article. On Tuesday of this week, I got the bright idea to buy a few shares after it was beat up 50%, but now realize it may be a falling knife. I got the information on this company two years ahead of time, but never bought until Tuesday just because I thought it must have value as Casey, Rule and others put so much faith in the idea, and the fact Trump has been favorable to mining permits in Alaska. Keep up the magnificent work! – from subscriber “James”

Yeah, I am watching them across the board getting hammered, yet silver is only down .06 today. Should be a big bounce back up coming for AG.
The numbers were exceptional and absolutely solid going forward. Todays trading is pathetic in the face of this extremely positive financial report. Now we need silver prices to start breaking out of this slump and head up past $19 toward $21 again.

Q4 2016 HIGHLIGHTS
Produced 2.8 million ounces of silver, or 4.4 million silver equivalent ounces.
All-in Sustaining costs ("AISC") of $12.90 per payable silver ounce, representing a 14% increase compared to Q4 2015.
Revenues totaled $66.2 million, relatively unchanged compared to Q4 2015.
Mine operating earnings of $9.9 million, representing a 154% increase compared to Q4 2015.
Operating cash flows before working capital and taxes of $23.4 million or $0.14 per share (non-GAAP).
"First Majestic delivered yet another record year of production, realizing the high end of our annual production guidance of 18.7 million silver equivalent ounces while achieving an all-in sustaining cost of $10.79 per ounce that came in well below our cost guidance range of $11.50 to $12.35 per ounce," said Keith Neumeyer, President and CEO of First Majestic.
"Our operating cash flows were more than sufficient to internally fund our capital expenditures program in addition to strengthening our treasury to $129.0 million at year end, the highest balance in the Company's history. The cash flows currently being generated are being reinvested in our 2017 budget which is expected to result in production growth in 2018. The key areas of focus in 2017 are the construction of the roasting system at the La Encantada mine and the exploration and development programs at both the La Guitarra mine and the Plomosas project."

FULL YEAR 2016 FINANCIAL RESULTS
Full year revenues achieved a new record of $278.1 million, an increase of $58.7 million or 27% compared to 2015, primarily due to a 16% increase in total production and the increase in silver prices.
The Company realized an average silver price of $17.16 per ounce in 2016, slightly beating the COMEX annual silver price average of $17.10 per ounce and representing a 7% increase compared to 2015.
Annual mine operating earnings totaled $49.2 million, an increase of 464% compared to $8.7 million in 2015. The increase in mine operating earnings was primarily driven by record-breaking production, lower production costs and higher silver prices.
The Company generated net earnings of $8.6 million (earnings per share of $0.05) in 2016 compared to a net loss of $108.4 million (loss per share of $0.84) in 2015. In 2015, the Company recorded an impairment charge of $108.4 million, or $70.2 million net of tax, on certain operations and development projects due to the decline in market consensus on long-term silver price forecasts during 2015 and the consequential impact on the Company's Reserves and Resources. Adjusted EPS normalized for non-cash or unusual items, such as impairment of non-current assets, deferred income tax expense or recovery and share-based payments was $0.12 per share in 2016.
Cash flows before movements in working capital and taxes increased by 80% to $107.3 million ($0.67 per share) compared to the prior year primarily due record production output and higher silver prices. Cash flows were also more than sufficient to fully fund the Company's capital budget program.
The Company ended 2016 with a record $129.0 million in cash and cash equivalents compared to $51.0 million at the end of 2015. In addition, the Company ended the year with a surplus in working capital of $130.6 million compared to $15.6 million at the end of 2015.
Q4 2016 FINANCIAL RESULTS
Revenues generated in the fourth quarter of 2016 totaled $66.2 million, representing a slight increase compared to $66.0 million in the fourth quarter of 2015.
The Company realized an average silver price of $17.10 per ounce, relatively in line with the COMEX quarterly silver price average of $17.12 per ounce and representing a 12% increase compared with the fourth quarter of 2015.
Mine operating earnings were $9.9 million compared to $3.9 million in the fourth quarter of 2015. The increase was driven by the increase in silver prices, partially offset by a 9% decrease in production.
The Company generated net earnings of $1.8 million (earnings per share of $0.01) compared to a net loss of $103.0 million (loss per share of $0.66) in the fourth quarter of 2015. Adjusted for non-cash or unusual items such as impairment of non-current assets, deferred income tax expense or recovery and share-based payments, the Company reported a loss of $0.01 per share.
Cash flows before movements in working capital and income taxes were $23.4 million ($0.14 per share), compared to $17.5 million ($0.11 per share) in the fourth quarter of 2015.
FULL YEAR 2016 OPERATIONAL RESULTS
Annual Production Summary Santa Elena La Encantada La Parrilla Del Toro San Martin La Guitarra Consolidated
Ore Processed / Tonnes Milled 988,060 881,075 610,509 337,020 297,802 155,696 3,270,162

Cash Costs per Ounce ($2.09 ) $11.21 $7.58 $5.73 $7.07 $7.23 $5.92
All-in Sustaining Cost per Ounce $1.75 $12.76 $10.46 $8.62 $9.40 $13.33 $10.79
Total Production Cost per Tonne $42.00 $33.11 $38.85 $51.67 $58.64 $77.43 $43.22
The Company produced a record 11.9 million ounces of silver in 2016, near the high end of the revised guidance and representing a 6% increase compared to 11.1 million ounces produced in the previous year. The increase was primarily attributed to the addition of the Santa Elena mine for the full year, partially offset by lower production from Del Toro and San Martin, both of which lowered throughput to focus on mining profitable ounces.
Total production in 2016 reached a record of 18.7 million silver equivalent ounces, also near the high end of the 2016 guidance, representing an increase of 16% compared to the previous year. The increase in production was primarily attributed to incremental production from Santa Elena, partially offset by lower by-product production from Del Toro and La Parrilla.
Cash cost per ounce in the year was $5.92, a decrease of 25% or $1.95 per ounce compared to the previous year and within the Company's guidance. The decrease in cash cost per ounce was attributed to ongoing company-wide cost reduction efforts and a focus on producing profitable ounces, a decrease in smelting and refining costs as a result of renegotiated sales agreements that were effective on July 1, 2016, and weakening of the Mexican pesos against the U.S. dollar.
AISC per ounce in 2016 was $10.79, a decrease of 20% or $2.64 per ounce compared to the previous year and is below the revised annual guidance of $11.50 to $12.35 per ounce. The decrease in AISC per ounce was reflective of the Company's ongoing effort to reduce production costs, weakening of the Mexican pesos against the U.S. dollar, as well as the addition of the Santa Elena mine to the Company's portfolio of assets, which became the Company's lowest cost mine.
The Company's total capital expenditures in 2016 was $65.9 million, an increase of 6% compared to the prior year, primarily consisting of $15.2 million at Santa Elena, $10.0 million at La Encantada, $11.5 million at Del Toro, $11.1 million at La Parrilla, $6.4 million at San Martin and $9.0 million at La Guitarra. The investments consisted of underground development, exploration, construction and expansion projects and acquisitions of new mining equipment.
As previously announced, the Company plans to invest a total of $124.0 million on capital expenditures in 2017 consisting of $46.2 million for sustaining requirements and $77.8 million for expansionary projects. The Company is preparing for future production growth by developing additional mine production levels at each of the Company's operations, preparing for the upcoming expansion at La Guitarra, completing the roasting circuit and preparing for block caving at La Encantada, in addition to the exploration work at Plomosas which is expected to result in a new Preliminary Economic Assessment in 2018.
Q4 2016 OPERATIONAL RESULTS
Fourth Quarter Production Summary Santa Elena La Encantada La Parrilla Del Toro San Martin La Guitarra Consolidated
Ore Processed / Tonnes Milled 257,771 235,039 153,309 82,767 76,848 38,422 844,155
Silver Ounces Produced 660,207 567,930 497,466 343,894 510,423 239,788 2,819,708
Silver Equivalent Ounces Produced 1,470,612 569,504 699,497 680,802 573,349 386,713 4,380,477
Cash Costs per Ounce ($1.43 ) $13.87 $10.22 $2.80 $6.94 $7.74 $6.49
All-in Sustaining Cost per Ounce $1.64 $16.53 $15.34 $8.43 $10.01 $15.99 $12.90
Total Production Cost per Tonne $37.57 $32.96 $41.92 $52.45 $56.70 $78.31 $42.13
In the fourth quarter, the Company produced 2.8 million ounces of silver, a decrease of 9% compared to the previous quarter, primarily due to a 9% decrease in average silver grade. Total production reached 4.4 million silver equivalent ounces in the fourth quarter, representing a decrease of 3% compared to the previous quarter. The decrease in silver grades is primarily due to lower grades at Del Toro in the month of October due to limited production at the high grade Dolores mine. As a result, the Company increased production rates at the San Juan mine to offset the decrease. Beginning in November, production at the Dolores mine returned to normal operating levels. Average silver grade at La Encantada also decreased 9% compared to the prior quarter primarily due to the continued blending of ore from old stopes, stockpiles and the recovery of pillars. Grades are expected to improve towards the end of 2017 following the start of block caving production within the San Javier Breccia.
Cash cost per ounce in the quarter was $6.49, an increase of 11% or $0.65 per ounce compared to the previous quarter. The increase in cash cost per ounce was primarily the result of lower silver grades leading to lower silver production and higher mining contractor costs attributed to ore development activities at the Santa Elena mine.
All-in sustaining cost per ounce ("AISC") in the fourth quarter was $12.90, an increase of 23% or $2.38 per ounce compared to the previous quarter. The increase in AISC was primarily attributed to an increase in sustaining capital expenditures to catch up with program targets in addition to higher cash cost per ounce.
Capital expenditures in the fourth quarter were $25.7 million, an increase of 24% compared to the prior quarter, primarily consisting of $3.2 million at Santa Elena, $5.6 million at La Encantada, $4.0 million at Del Toro, $5.0 million at La Parrilla, $2.2 million at San Martin and $4.3 million at La Guitarra.
In the fourth quarter of 2016, the Company entered into two option agreements to acquire additional mining concessions around the Del Toro and Santa Elena mines. In October 2016, the Company entered into an agreement to acquire an additional 7,205 hectares of mining concessions near Del Toro for the total purchase price of $1.5 million, payable over six equal payments every six months, with $0.3 million having been paid as of December 31, 2016. In addition, the Company entered into an option agreement in December 2016 with Compania Minera Dolores, S.A. de C.V., a subsidiary of Pan American Silver Corp., to acquire 5,802 hectares of mining concessions adjacent to the Santa Elena mine. In exchange, First Majestic has agreed to incur $1.6 million in exploration costs on the property over four years, a 2.5% NSR royalty on the related concessions, and to pay $1.4 million in cash, of which $0.1 million was due on or before the date of agreement (paid), $0.2 million in December 2017, $0.2 million in December 2018, $0.3 million in December 2019 and $0.7 million in December 2020, respectively.

Kerrisdalecap lays out a scathing indictment of NAK and the Pebble project in an in depth, point by point take down of the Pebble Project fallacy. Even in the best case scenarios, it would take many years and Billions of dollars to make this failed project even start to happen.
https://www.kerrisdalecap.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/02/Northern-Dynasty-Minerals-NAK.pdf
The Billions of Dollars that need to be pumped into this project may not be so easy to get. There is a huge risk involved when considering that a complete loss of investment could occur before mining even gets started, if a Democratic administration takes over in four years.
It will take at least four years to get everything in place including permitting, environmental impact statements, and infrastructure, to start actual mining of the site. As stated, that means taking a huge gamble that the Dems don't get back in power in four years and stop the project in its track, potentially costing investors in the company Billions of dollars. Huge Gamble.
Pruitt gets in, NAK stock price goes down. Classic buy on rumor sell on News. Dismal future for the stock going forward, as it will be years before any actual NAK payoff materializes, and that will only be after the stock is diluted down to under $1.00 again.
News coming next week regarding Yearly Financials, Earnings, and Investor Conference Call.
If Silver continues its upward move past $18 going into the AG financial/earnings release and Investor Conference Call where President & CEO Keith Neumeyer is extremely effective when representing his company and the silver industry , it should be a huge boost to the stock price moving forward through the next upward resistance levels.

ABANDON SHIP! The FreeF Rats are fleeing the sinking ship.
Earnings report and Company/Investor Conference Call coming up around February 22nd. I expect to hear that the Company is cash rich and in an extremely strong position going forward. Should be a great report, and should solidify a continued move upwards towards $12 and higher, depending on Silver continuing its bullish move up.

Keep in mind going forward that the permit process is only step one. In order to get the billon dollar financing and strategic partnerships necessary to start a project that will, by the company's own estimates, take several years to develop, massive dilution is going to take place in the future. I would expect the possibility that hundreds of millions of shares in the company will be issued to future partners and financiers as collateral.
Not with well over half a billion shares in the O/S. The only thing that will impact this stock price and actually enable its huge, almost immovable and sluggish barge of outstanding stock, is a massive Reverse Split that takes the price out of penny stock land and into the radar of bigger and more serious investors. Of course that well may destroy current shareholder value, but it happens time after time on the penny stock market.
That's nice. And exactly what did that jolly news do for the share price?
Unfortunately, there are no earnings, and probably won't be for several years. News about permitting, and financing partnerships should be the drivers going forward, along with the confirmation of Pruitt as EPA director. Although the "buy on rumor sell on News" strategy might take the price down after the confirmation.
This didn't help either although they paid down some debt which was a positive to counteract the dilution.

The company has diluted its stock considerably, and that is one of the problems. Check the filings.
Trump should just abolish the EPA and start from scratch. Or at the least, he should fire the current EPA employees who are protesting and signing petitions against his EPA pick, and rehire employees who will cooperate with the new administration.
There were no lawsuits against her. I still think he will get in, however the Dems might be able to delay the vote until a Judge rules on the lawsuit, which I think may be next Thursday.

Donald Trump’s EPA Pick Sued Over Thousands Of Undisclosed Records

After hours trading at 3.06. Gap up on open?
I think they will punch Pruitt through, even if they need to use the Nuclear option put in place by Harry Reid under Obama when the Dems had control of the House and Senate. That option only requires 51 votes, and now that the the Republicans hold the House and the Senate, they have the 51 votes. The Dems are trying to stall everything Trump does. However they can't stop it if all Republicans vote him in. Even if by some reason Pruitt didn't get it, rest assured the next pick Trump has waiting in the wings would be just as good, if not better than Pruitt.
