<p>[QUOTE="Collector1966, post: 1250936, member: 17919"]It's not just aversion to the Bre-X incident (which most people probably don't remember anyway). You should check out one of the Big Three mining conferences (PDAC, Toronto; Mining Indaba, South Africa; Mines and Money London) and see how many mining companies are represented. Nearly all of them have slick exhibits and you can easily get the impression that they are headed for success, but relatively few of them actually achieve it. With all the pitfalls associated with the mining industry, you have to be constantly paying attention. Even the big players can run into problems. Rio Tinto, for example, has had trouble with the Chinese government over the arrest of some of RT's China-based employees. Meanwhile, Barrick has been having problems in South America, particularly Argentina. Really, why get involved in that sort of thing when you can just buy the product?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
