I've ridden this roller coaster for over 40 years. When mineral prices are up, investors invest. When prices are down, they pull their money and write off the loss. They spend the money trying to develop a property when the mineral prices are up, When in fact they should have done that while the prices are down so they would be poised to produce when prices go up. Then when the market tanks before they can produce, Their money is lost as well as their stomach for trying again. It's and endless cycle of buying high and selling low. Echo Bay pulled out of the AJ when gold was $265 an ounce. They cited the need for prices to be at least $350 per ounce to start to make a profit. They weren't gone long before gold jumped to $1,900/oz and still holding around $1,200. They could have been making bank today, even with that low grade ore. Now CBJ wants to start it up again to produce revenue. Again, buying high. Risky business? Yes. But not as risky as starting up on the backside of the apex.
