Q: Trading in the shares of BTO lately has been very contrary to the price of gold and on some heavy volume days. It seems to go down when the price of gold goes up and it was recently a top pick by a fairly reputable mining investor. They seem to have a good relationship with the Mali gov't, but do you think this trading pattern is a warning sign of some nefarious situation only a few know about?

Q: It seems that the most efficient gold mining companies are selling gold for about four times the cost of production. Is that already reflected in the share price?

Q: Re: Mayfair Gold Corp and Snowline Gold Corp

Watched an interesting interview with Darren Mclean who highlighted a couple of gold companies:
MFG (not listed on your database yet) and SGD.
He's the one who actually flew satellites over mining projects and read drill reports personally to decide whether projects were a "scam" or legit.

What drew me to this was the idea that Muddy Waters and Darren Mclean are taking long positions in these companies, despite their primary business being short sellers.

Here is the original article by Larry McDonald of the Globe and Mail, including the video link:

Wondering what your thoughts are on these two companies, especially as share prices have run up parabolically on SGD?
My interest would be in small speculative positions only.

Thanks and happy holidays.
