Q: Hi, I'm having trouble deciphering if Nevsun had a good quarter or not, and the go-forward operations. There revenues were down from last year, and profit was up. But this may not be very meaningful since they are also expanding their zinc production, and lowering gold production as they transition. They also allude to lower copper production.

Can you please comment on your understanding of how their conversion plans are going, and if they are on/ahead/behind on their plans, costs, projections?

Thanks!

Q: I have no exposure to materials (I include SJ as an industrial) in my portfolio. I am reluctant to have exposure to this sector as the volatility and lack of earnings are generally beyond my comfort level. I still feel that I should have some exposure so I was thinking MDI would be a good candidate as it is a lesser risk with leverage to this sector. Can you comment please that this is an appropriate strategy for my risk profile and would you recommend buying MDI at this time?

Q: About a year ago I inherited 10,000 shares of something called Gran Columbia Gold Corp. (GCM) I never hear anything much about it and although I know it's no gem, wondered if it might be worth keeping should gold rally again? Or, should I just sell it and enjoy a McDonald's All Day Breakfast. Thanks so much for your help :-)

Q: In the past I have followed and at times purchased Eldorado and done ok by it, not the first time though.
Would you by chance have another junior either gold or silver, for me to put on my watch list...and for me gold/ silver is a one stock position.

Q: What is your current opinion on gold in general? Are the macro factors in favor of holding gold stocks right now? Would you suggest always holding some gold stocks, selling a portion in a peak and re-buying in a trough, or trade the entire position in and out?
Currently holding Kinross and Yamana in my growth portfolio.

Q: I had a trilling ride this summer! In FR around $12,I couldn't believe how quickly it got to $25,even faster on the way down to $10! I'm still committed to the Precious Metals sector as the world seems exceptionally strange right now...
My question is; A lot of investors 'bought' at much higher levels will there be a lot of overhead resistance as it tries to climb higher? Would it make sense to sell and buy another Silver Co. that will not have as much selling pressure as investors try to break even? (I'm assuming that Silver/Gold may take some time to go higher, if silver is trading at $22 in 3 months then I would think it doesn't really matter)
Thanks for your service!
