That's intersting---always nice to kinda get a guy kinda 'located' when he's talking about his operation. I'll be going thru there this summer, headed to town of hudsons bay--or is it hudson bay?--anyhow, the one that's furthest east. Got a lovely coal play there---88m, thickest intersection ever found in Canada. Probably come back thru Lloyd---heavy oil deal there that intrigues me--the guy running it holds 40% of co, 70% total is locally owned. Not good with numbers, financial statements, I look for stuff like this and go by the people. Last road trip up thataway was kindersley---viking horizontals, that play worked but was plum spendy---you could spend 1.2mm every 5 days. About 1 1/2 yr payout. I decided several yrs ago to 'get on the other side of the table' that when people talked about much fert, gas, diesel prices went up I wanted to be able to say 'Is that all?' I kinda got this philosophy some from Alan Nation, stockman grass farmer---"if you think cattle are too cheap to sell, maybe you should be buying them?"
For people in sask esp---it's kinda an ab of 30 yrs ago---phenomenal opportunities---coal, oil, gas, uranium, potash, diamonds---and it's right in your backyard. I have a lotta fun with this stuff--and occasionally make a buck or two.
