have not been made to the public for whatever their reasoning is...I can think of several that stand out in my mind.
When Urban started to acquire all of those parcels of mining claims he did so under the radar and under the nose of Debeers. Now you don't acquire that massive amount of mineral claims unless you don't want anyone else knowing what you are doing. If the other mining companies were aware of what he was up to... don't you think they would have tried in the early stages to disrupt his plan? Urban would have to move around quietly up there in Saskatchewan and carefully of course. He knew something that most of the other mining companies didn't and he moved on it and kept at it...and I believe he is still at it and has been for some time the game never ends in exploration because simply that is what exploration companies do...they explore...just like oil companies catch my drift here.
That leads me too this...in my opinion with a possible regulatory investigation on the horizon he shut it down on the advice of Roger Glenn. I think he may have wanted to hold his cards close to his chest until the dust settles and for also to keep the other companies guessing as to what he may or may not have on which specific areas of his claims. I sure would not want to have my rivals have this information in their possession it would not be a smart intelligent move for the long run.
Keeping the other companies guessing in my opinion I have never brought that up here before and it is a thought I have been punching around in my mind for many months now and decided to voice it today finally. Urban had no choice but to protect his claims from the other companies and I believe he made a strategic move to not reveal his true hand here until the regulatory situation is resolved. Think about this...if he has diamonds or other valuable minerals would you want other companies knowing about that information in his current or future situation? They would be lining up like circling sharks smelling the blood in the water. Urban is not going to be pressured by anyone into revealing what he has or does not possess. I do believe that he was going to let us in on some of the information but was advised by legal counsel that it would not be a wise or prudent thing to do at the time of the Vegas party.
I believe Roger Glenn is really the mastermind behind that move all the way if indeed they are playing it this way and I am feeling pretty confident right now that they are indeed handling it this way. They are basically playing the Ali rope a dope until the dust settles and then when the coast is clear they are coming out swinging I believe that will lead us to core samples and a different listing on another exchange at some point down the road.
Of course I have no proof of this but I have hours of research on this man and I have been smelling this from miles away for months now. From an attornies standpoint if I were an attorney... that would be my advice to Urban if he was my client. I would tell him to ride out the situation, bring in other board members and a person like Maheu, hold back core samples and continue to operate,explore and acquire claims. While they are doing this I believe that is why we are seeing PR's every so often and Bob has a hand in them.
Maheu was brought in to fight off the wolves in my opinion and he served Howard Hughes brilliantly I might add. Do you think at Bob's age he would have taken Urban and Roger up on their offer to come on with them if he didn't know what they had? Think about that Maheu had to have been shown something in a meeting that caught his eye and attention or he would not be here that is a fact. As smart as Maheu is he more than likely saw what was laid out for him by Glenn and Urban and he jumped on board. Now think to yourself this... as tough and smart as Maheu is and his past records of achievement. Do you think for a split second he would have joined up forces with our guys if he didn't see something that he could be a part of and straighten out? Maheu is as smart and cunning as the sly fox that he was in his younger years. If you think that old Bob is too old for this one... you better rethink that thought. All I can tell you is he will isolate the situation, break it down and then take a hammer out and pound on the SOB's until he gets what he is looking for. This is one guy you don't want to be other side of the table from thumbing your nose at and I can't stress that enough on this point here. He is not going to be evasive he will be front and center and will conduct his business accordingly Bobs past history proves this point. He is taking on another mavericks business that will be proven in due time for all to see in my humble opinion.
They have something that you or anyone else is not aware of and they want to keep it that way until they are in the clear. Shareholders are important that they have stated. But, what I have laid out here is bigger than us the shareholders at this time and it still is a pink sheet so they can and will do whatever they desire at this time for disclosure. They don't have to share anything that they do want wish too for whatever their reasons. I believe they are doing this to protect the company and Urbans interests and it's shareholders actually in the long run.
Howard Hughes the man the myth the maverick had Bob Maheu in his corner... now Urban Casavant has him and that makes in my opinion Urban a true maverick.
There are other reasons and thoughts that I have arrived at after many many months of research in due time I guess mine and your thoughts will be disproven or proven. I think in time we will all see where we are going on our paths as shareholders and I think if things work out that more than likely we will be rewarded at some point for sticking in there with Urban.
