    Lenic has stated Shafter is to begin production ahead of schedule-slated for Q1 2012 so that is within five months ,not the seven stated herein.

    What does Kitco know when Big Al delivers straight from the CEO’s mouth to our ears?

    cfs,not certain what the point of posting up insider trades is doing for anybody.
    Adrian Aguirre could have made .70 selling shares today.
