Q: Would you say that the end of the strike at CEZinc is a good sign that zinc is headed in the right direction? I would think that when the production is not needed there is no rush to settle. Would you view this as a positive for the sector in general? For Trevali Mining is this a positive or a negative? Thanks!

Q: News release: In light of the prevailing market conditions now facing the Fund, it is necessary for available cash, if any, to be used to augment reserves. The Board of Trustees has announced the suspension of future monthly distributions to unitholders. The previously declared January distribution will be paid on February 27, 2017. There is no assurance that monthly distributions will resume in the future.

Q: I just received news that the agreement between Glencore and NIF.UN will be renewed for another five years. However, "With the renewal of the Supply and Processing Agreement, the main challenge now facing the Fund will be to continue to operate its Processing Facility at a profit once market terms take effect May 3, 2017. The Fund’s Board of Trustees is mindful of the expected negative impact that the transition to market term pricing will have on the Fund’s operations, including its ability to sustain its distribution policy. The Board of Trustees is carefully reviewing the Fund’s reserves and will augment the reserves if necessary." Whatis your view on NIF.UN?

Q: I note your recent comments on the risks associated with the present contracts for NIF but my understanding from one of the noted brokerages is that the Co has a "break up" value of somewhere between 3.50 and 5.00, which of course is well ahead of the current pricing and worth a wait for this to be realized. Could you comment please. Thank you.
