australian and us operational update, page-50

Does anyone know when the the executive John Pugh actually left Smelter Services corporation .

The announcment just staes "former "

Had JP finished with SSC on say June 30 2011 , and then joined MHM on July 1 2011 it is very significant .

It is almost an intra company arrangement and you would think very significant in respect to a deal eventuating with SSC .

If John Pugh had resigned or retired in say Jan 2011 ,it is still positive but less so in respect to a deal with Smelter serices , but possibly an indicator the comapny needs a local person to look for introductions and partners to get the first deal over the line

Either way it is positive , just one point is a little more positive than the other in my opinion .
