BTW, I sent email to rumored Markray CEO David Brown some time ago. Of course, no response as expected. Maybe he is too busy with his laundry business. But, based on my similar AURC experience, I believe Mr. Brown either has no idea that he was "assigned" fictitious CEO of this entity, or maybe he did agree to play this role, but his new Russian-Canadian "partners" don't keep their promises to handle everything behind the scene (like maintaining RVBR Delaware status in order). Honestly, I am afraid to call him... In similar situation with AURC I was immediately contacted by these guys who wanted to meet me in person for "some talks".
Markray's 2017 Delaware tax is still unpaid, and penalty & interest keep growing:

I actually bought a lot of stuff from one of those online dealers (BullionDirect). And stopped doing this when delays in deliveries started. They went bankrupt in 2015, and people are still fighting to get their money back: http://about.ag/BullionDirect.htm
Also, I never let sellers (even respected and reliable like APMEX or Provident) keep my metal in their storage "for free". I rather pay shipping cost.
BTW, bought 100 oz silver bar from Bullion exchanges yesterday. It's below today's spot already.
Lessons from $362.5 Million in Alleged Silver Gold Scams
http://news.goldseek.com/GoldSeek/1525268290.php
People believe in mess. They just don't believe in gold-mess correlation.
This VT article marked as “Sponsored Content”. I wonder who the sponsor is. Anyway, as I reported earlier, I heard this Putin’s speech “real time”. That’s exactly what he said. Just some especially ridiculous places (like over sound underwater capabilities) are omitted. This speech was analyzed by many experts (including Russian military specialists). They found a lot of “wishful thinking” and exaggerations. Some parts of Putin’s presentation were even taken from known computer war games. But all this doesn’t matter. And I agree, “its some serious stuff happening”. Even with it’s last century nukes and missiles Russia is still the only State that can turn United State into nuclear ash. And you can hear this kind of statements on Russian State TV. It’s like advanced North Korea with not imaginable but real threat. Is Russia’s military strength makes it a World Great Power? I don’t know. Should it be treated differently from Iran or North Korea? I guess. Many experts believe that the main purpose of these Putin’s “military tales” (true or false) is to "deserve" the right to meet US President and start negotiations. And the NK way to bring him to the negotiation table won’t work. I am not even sure it will work for Iran.
Israeli spies stole half a tonne of secret nuclear documents from Iran 'in a single night'
By Raf Sanchez
1 MAY 2018 • 10:09AM
Israeli spies reportedly broke into an Iranian nuclear archive in southern Tehran last year and hauled out half a tonne of documents in operation completed in a single night.
The raid is said to have provided the intelligence behind Benjamin Netanyahu’s public accusation that Iran lied to the world about its nuclear programme before and after the 2015 Iran deal.
The Israeli prime minister described the operation as one of Israel’s “biggest-ever intelligence achievements” but gave few details about how it came about during his speech at the Israeli defence ministry on Monday.
https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2018/05/01/israeli-spies-stole-half-tonne-secret-nuclear-documents-iran/
Netanyahu: Iran Nuclear Deal Is Based on Lies – Here's the Proof
'Iran did not come clean on its nuclear program,' Netanyahu says, saying more than 100,000 Iranian documents Israel obtained prove nuclear 'deal is based on lies' ¦ Speech comes on heels of strike against two bases in Syria and ahead of Trump's decision on nuclear deal.
https://www.haaretz.com/israel-news/pm-expected-to-reveal-how-iran-cheated-world-on-nuke-program
"strike against two bases in Syria" is probably nuclear attack VT was talking about.
We discussed this in details before. "VeteransToday" is anti-Israel (read anti-Semitic) site sponsored by Iran-Russia. Everything they post is complete garbage produced by sick mind. As we know, Trump is going to "redo" or "undo" nuclear deal with Iran. I can imagine how VT is going to react. It's interesting that VT seemed to be supporting Trump before they saw his intentions towards Iran, Russia and Israel. Or they supported last year unrest in Turkey claiming that was smart Russian operation... until they realized that Putin and Erdogan are "friends" again.
Conclusion: Garbage site that publishes sick garbage conspiracy fantasies. Just enter "VeteransToday" in Google search to get full picture.
P.S. Israel did hit positions of Syrian Army and Iran-linked targets in Syria several times because Iran & Syria keep hitting Israel territory with missiles strikes using Iran's proxy Hamas. So, terrorist group Hamas and VeteransToday are both Iranian lovely children. They both deserve punishment, and reportedly President Trump is working on this.
First Mining Gold (FF) Earns “Buy” Rating from Roth Capital

Actually, Universal Garment Wash & Dye is legitimate business with about 40 employees and $2+ mln revenue:
http://www.buzzfile.com/business/Universal-Garment-Wash-and-Dye-LLC-818-761-7373
If you look at the price of similar businesses for sale, you will realize that Markray is currently overpriced (50-100 times).
I am very surprised that nobody is willing to contact Markray's CEO David Brown, and ask him some simple questions. It's so simple - he is not in Russia (like his predecessors), and I guess he speaks English. Well, maybe I will do this myself.
Google: In idiomatic English, "the powers that be" (sometimes initialized as TPTB) is a phrase used to refer to those individuals or groups who collectively hold authority over a particular domain.
At least this time FMT pump was supported by 2 serious PRs from the company. Maybe it will work. I think 3+ mln shares sold last week were bought at low .30s. Traders took their profits, and support has moved to .36-.38. Why would new owners sell them for a loss now?

Sadly, I have to agree with Implanting on Future Money Trends promotions. They are cheap pumpers. Just check their last year recommendations on FFMGF ("bargain under 1 CAD" and "gold at $1,500 by the end of 2017"). Also read their Disclaimer screen: https://www.futuremoneytrends.com/disclaimer . I can understand these "monetary or free shares" compensation parts. But what especially "encouraging" is the statement that they don't do any research or DD when they post their recommendations. That's really funny, if you ask me. Translating into simple English this means: "We have no idea about stocks we promote. We just do this for compensation":
- We receive monetary or securities compensation from persons that claim they are a non-affiliate shareholder (“NAS”) or an issuer; however, we conduct no due diligence whatsoever to determine whether in fact they are a non-affiliate;
- We may receive free trading shares from the non-affiliates, which we will not sell during the course of any of our promotional campaigns. After our campaigns and after our self restricting 4 week hold of the securities, we may decide to sell at anytime there after.
- We may buy and sell securities in the securities that we provide information dissemination services, which may cause: a) significant volatility in the issuer’s stock; (b) price declines from our selling activities; (c) permit us to make substantial profits while we are disseminating profiles or information about the issuer, yet may result in a diminished value to the stock for investors;
- We conduct little or no due diligence on the profiles we receive from the non-affiliate shareholders nor do we conduct due diligence on any other information we disseminate to the public;
- We conduct no diligence on the press releases we receive from a non-affiliate shareholder, an issuer, or from a publicly available source;
My Disclaimer: As I stated before I like FFMGF as great long term investment, but I trade 20-30% of my position... especially on pumps like this. The idea is to sell when the pumper starts selling.
First Majestic Silver's Neumeyer: Precious Metals to take Off This Year
SGTreport ( Original )
APR 16, 2018
https://goldsilver.com/blog/first-majestic-silvers-neumeyer-precious-metals-to-take-off-this-year/
Good thing about high volume - it will create another higher support for stock price. Bad thing - gold price refuses to cooperate so far. I would expect another attempt to go higher tomorrow, and slip to 0.36-0.37 after that. Just guessing based on past experience. Of course, the management can give it another push up, but... it looks like they are not interested in short term moves.
Have you called Mr. Brown yet?
There is no direct link, as I said. You need to take some steps and prove that you are not robot. It's normal protection for any financial information online. The link you posted for 2016 was not a direct link either. It was just image posted on iHub. Was my image worse than yours. And as I said 2017 report was not filed anyway. Why don't you want to talk with RVBR CEO?
BTW, I really recommend anybody interested to call the company (818)761 7373 and talk with Markray CEO David Brown. The questions I would ask:
1. Do you know anything about public traded company Markray? (In the past some CEOs didn't even know that someone in Russia-Canada used their name).
2. When are you going to file 2017 annual report and pay taxes to DE?
3. How many shares of RVBR do you own?
Please let us know what he said.
That's the point. Annual report for 2017 was not filed, and taxes not paid. The screenshot I posted is the header of blank annual report screen that company's management can submit online. Use the link I posted, enter 4435535 as file #, click "File Annual Report" link.
Hmm... I understand, using internet is not easy.
The link is
https://icis.corp.delaware.gov/Ecorp/FranchiseTax/Filing.aspx
(you will need to do some steps to get to Markray data).
And here is the screenshot for you:
Again, for those who are slow... It's paid for 2016, not 2017. Just go to DE corporations website and check for yourself.
And yes, there is no "vested interest" in this particular stock - I have never owned it and won't in future. But I have "vested interest" in Russian scammers. I am a PhD in this. If/when the California laundry management shows that those criminals are not involved anymore, I will lose interest.
How does this contradict the data I posted? Last annual report was in 2016. 2017 was not filed and tax/penalty/interest is not paid. Maybe Russians had to clean tax records to get Mr. Braun's laundry agreement to take this trash. Now new CEO has to pay it himself... or ask Russians to pay again, if they are still hiding behind his business. BTW, you can always call Markray CEO David Brown. His phone # and ext. are listed on the laundry website I posted earlier.
Well, my DD shows that Markray has not paid DE tax for 2017, penalty and interest are adding every day. Is laundry actually able to pay $75K annual tax?

Updated ON-TOPIC post...
That's how Markray's real business looks now. As we estimated before it's not worth even the current RVBR market cap. RVBR shares are highly overvalued.

Do you follow international news at all? Heard about Russian sanctions? Russian assets are toxic. Even if Markray "assets" exist (and they do not!), nobody will touch them anymore. Trump's deadline to get rid of investments in Russia is the end of May. Without Western technologies and equipment Russia can't keep even current level of real gold production. As to extracting fake gold from Roshal fields... forget about this. Markray is dead and any movement based on fake news will be short-lived attempt to attract newborn idiots in US market. There's a sucker born every minute, as you know. So, if the management is "smart", they will forget about gold and start talking about marijuana, bitcoins, etc. All pinky scams do this. This will be your chance to sell this worthless paper to "bigger fool".
Actually, the author tells us what exactly gold is screaming: "next move is likely to be a sizable downswing and that the time for the consolidation is up or almost up... Yesterday’s session in gold likely shows the final stages of the above cycle and the implications are very bearish... yet another clear sign of underperformance of the miners. The implications thereof remain bearish."

I would join you on "cooler heads prevail" hope: reportedly 100 to 600 "private" Russian fighters were killed by US forces in Syria on Feb, 7. It was the first direct military conflict between US and Russia (USSR) since Korean war:

I was "lucky" to watch this speech real time and was especially impressed to see standing ovation when animation showed Russian nuclear rockets hitting Florida. Russian commentators stressed that this is where Trump's residence located.

Bargain for those interested in physical platinum:
https://www.providentmetals.com/pamp-suisse-25-1-gram-platinum-bar-multigram-25.html
I agree 100%, but... unlike AG (for example) FF doesn't have any revenue and isn't going to have it for 2+ more years. So, (IMO) the management should do more to support shareholders value. Not just excellent drilling results and estimated value of reserves, but some hype that keeps small shareholders happy before big players get involved: tell us about interest from big gold producers, negotiations with possible JV partners (even if they are empty talks), etc. This is a penny stock after all, and there are some tricks that allow even empty shells to keep higher valuation than FFMGF.
I am just falling with this knife - adding 10% on every 0.01 move down.
