Q: Gentlemen

What are your thoughts about Scandium International. The company has a large scandium deposit in Australia which was last week just approved for a mining licence. My understanding is that scandium is a rare earth metal that when partnered with aluminum creates a much stronger alloy that still retains the lightweight aspects of aluminum on its own. My quick investigation sees this as having a number of applications in both the aerospace and automobile industries. I looked at their website but see that this is still in the pre-production stage as there is no revenues but I can see this having great potential especially for fuel savings in the era of climate change. Do you think a position on spec is okay or is it still too early to get in at this time.

Regards
Robert

Q: My only gold holding is McEwen Mining (MUX)and I am looking at either Kirkland Lake (KL) or B2Gold (BTO).
BTO has almost one billion shares outstanding while KL has less than 200M although their respective market caps are close in size. Is this a determining factor and which one would you favour, and why?
MUX was my first choice because the CEO owns 25% of the company, he has a great track record and they have no debt. Good choice?
Thank you.
