    Mcfarms I think that really has nothing to do with One Earth Farms. Are not flow through share investments only for mining exploration, not farming? One Earth should be a corp in itself under the same tax rules as every other farmer.

      You are right flow throughs are usually for riskier mining plays hence the tax treatment, just wanted to really illustrate how easy it is for a company like sprott to raise capital to compete for farmland capital etc. Not a lot of family farmers going to float a 100 million share offering real easily. That said the ROI on Ag may not make it a real great share idea but neither was nortel in hindsite.

        OK if that's his game then at least with a mine you might strike it and gain but farming come on 100 years and still same shit.

          And yes you are right I also didn't fully connect the fact that these were flow throughs not a normal share offering. Just saw the big share offering while looking at the new offering listing.

            Any chance they might be doing some exploratory work on native lands?

              Explore for the better land. Perhaps they will drop the native lands in a couple years and farm the most productive lands.

                Massive amount of potash under at least three of their land holdings. Massive. I still think that's the hidden card.

                  sprott not going to lose only gain in fees for management. He is making money off investers before he has even put a seed in the ground are investors so blind.....

                    as far as minerals go the bands have not been the easiest for exploration companies to deal with. they have title to the minerals and the federal govt. gets involved right away. i think sprott is gambling on farming. others are too! is brett wilson still buying up land? how about jim rogers? haven't heard much from him lately.
