Ann: Director Resignation , page-7

Perhaps Laurence Freedman feels the same way I do that it's about time we got this show on the road, no more messing around. He will likely call in a few professionals who know what to do to get the gold out of the ground or get a joint venture partner or buyer for the whole show. He foreshadowed more experienced people coming on board in the annual report. A public company is no place for amateur dabblers.
Laurence Freedman is a top professional and has a great track record. I have no idea why Elaine resigned but it could be that LF is moving too fast for her liking.
Though she may not like it the family will undoubtedly benefit.
I say, go Laurence! Get this show happening.
