RE: Borgman - I was previous asked about this information. I have provided a link of my findings so far. Have a quick read and let me know what you think.
Its a good start but FMNJ is very oversold / undervalued - its one of US oldest comp. Est. 1864 - it was not long ago trading at more than $150.00/share - and its still holding the rich Franklin Gold Mines - and its new Re-Commissioned mill - its also in partnership with the largest and richest Silver Mine - in the World - Cerro Rico INCA Mines - who produced 1-2 bil. ounces of PM's Silver -
