Joking aside (if that's possible), The only reason I know for the visit to Asia was that I read somewhere on this site was that they had an arrangement with some Chinese company to buy some minerals. That's if they ever managed to produce anything!
Snippet.
The Company has entered into an agreement with Shenyang Huachang Antimony Chemical Co., Ltd. ("SHACC"), a subsidiary of New Huachang Five Star Group, whereby SHACC has certain rights to acquire ore mined at the Fencemaker antimony property by FLPC strategic partner, Stockpile Reserves LLC. SHACC will pay a premium over industry standard prices on competitive payment terms based on its desire to source from a stable jurisdiction with strong environmental and safety standards.
This was ages ago, a year or so, a wild guess is that perhaps Don's been offered a job, in which case he could up sticks and clear off, OR there's a deal going on if they intend to restructure and mine some rocks of some sort or even go for a JV. Pie in the sky probably as who will enter into any agreement with a company that hasn't actually got anything to invest! 'Expertise and consultancy' perhaps? Didn't 'Don the Con' do this in a previous life?
Some time ago, I wrote to these guys and asked them if they had any dealings at all with FLPC, but they never replied. Sore point perhaps?!
