Karl_m - if you really are an old friend of Mr Mount, I pose the following
1. Why did Mr Mount not make these accusations personally?
2. If Mr Mount wants the support of this group, why is he refusing to answer valid concerns posed by members of this group?
3. You are making serious accusations whilst hiding behind the cloak of anonimity - clear this mess up and get Mr Mount to COMMUNICATE with the members of the concerned shareholder group. |

| To: Karl_M who wrote (1029) | 11/26/2021 2:29:05 PM | | From: andrewlong | | | | Following along the lines of comments by poster Kiwi Pom.
Why did you not contact Martin Mount (or did your so called 'friend' contact you to sign up to Silicon Investor and put out some verbiage).
Reference is made to approximate height of Mark T of 1.9 meters which equates to approximately 6.23 feet. I have seen pictures of Mark T and by stature he is not a 'giant' in height, I would say more around 5.6 feet (1.706 m), in my view he is 'short' in stature.
Did his wife contact you?
As a friend of Martin, I would suggest you consider giving him sound advice.
Apparently, when the meeting agenda (annual meeting) was made public Mark contacted Martin Mount, they had a brief conversation as the potential issues that Martin may face if elected as Director. Mark tried to contact Martin a second time, Martin it appears refused to speak to Mark a second time. A normal individual would have spoken to Mark the second time and then could conclude with "Mark, do not contact me anymore until the voting is completed". But in my view I think that someone from the Company (after the first contact) told (or scolded him) for talking to Mark and was advised (told) not to speak to Mark in the future.
If the above paragraph is partially correct then I am asking myself: 'is the proposed nominee of Martin Mount for Director truly 'independent ' '

These people always attack the person Mark and his character but they never ever provide any answers to his or our questions to the company. It is very easy to see that this is their strategy. Silence on factual matters and smearing of the person Mark. |

These types use ad hominem attacks designed to divert your attention -- beware the boogeyman over there! -- while they use the other hand to pick your pocket.

| To: Sredna5 who wrote (1028) | 11/26/2021 3:49:05 PM | | From: waznot | | | | The Rio Tinto whistleblower site is one of the best for ease of supplying info and concerns. You get an email after their each step of there process in review. And it is designed to add new information etc just by logging into your account and go to the bottom (that is slick and convenient), i.e. such as adding why are we asked to vote when Benavides is under investigation.
I have not received at least an acknowledgment email from MIRL Canadian legal counsel, Ethan Minsky to date.
Up until now Benavides and the Board knew of our every move as we suggested them on this board. As Mark has noted/implied it is time to share anything of major importance on quiet side for the moment while we use the ‘private reply’ button. It would be interesting (to image the reactions of the CEO and the Board) if we all went silent for a week, just on the lighter side thought.

| To: Karl_M who wrote (1029) | 11/26/2021 3:58:13 PM | | From: mark_ikn | | | | I am happy Martin Mount knows of my existence. I can also confirm I was treated with extreme aggression by "Ivan" (he wouldn't give his name) and pointed out a few home truths to the man. However, "Karl_M" and his report twists several facts and seems to be deliberately exaggerating the events.
1) I arrived and the business address of Martin Mount, which turned out to be one of several houses in a cul-de-sac, behind a iron gate.
2) I entered the gate (it was unlocked) and was approached by Ivan. I asked him if this was the business address of Martin Mount (as for how I got the address, that is simple: in point of fact Martin Mount's business address is publically available information)
3) Ivan denied Martin Mount was there and immediately threatened to call the police. And by that, I mean, in the next breath.
4) I bit my tongue and continued asking Ivan if this was Mr. Mount's address, by showing him Martin Mount's name and address as found in a public available website. In point of fact, his business address and his home address turned out to be the same place. I had discovered that on arrival (and the little garden with a small lawn made it evident).
5) He then admitted it was Martin Mount's address (i.e. he lied to me and then only admitted the truth when I had the information available to contradict him)
6) I then walked some 20m and stood outside Martin Mount's house. Ivan is now right behind me, repeating his threat to call the police
7) I then told him that I would be happy for him to call the police, as I would like to speak to them as well (regarding Ivan's false statements and aggressive behaviour)
8) At all times i stayed on the tarmac road. This is a key point, as people who live in "gated communities" in Lima are under the false impression that just because they put a gate up, the road is theirs. It isn't and I invite them to read their own Constitution.
9) With no way of entering the house to ring the bell (my rights of presence end at the road and I do not invite trouble), I then called out to then house, asking for Mr. Mount and stating that it was in his best interest to talk to either me or a member of the Concerned Shareholder group. If they want to exaggerate that by depicting it as "Screaming and Terrorizing" they can do so. It wasn't. Also, the word "unhinged" is offensive and simply untrue, but suits the way CEO Benavides would like to depict his corporate battle as something personal. It isn't, this has always been and will continue to be issue of serious corporate wrongdoing.
10) A neighbour appeared, also aggressive and immediately taking Ivan at his word while disbelieving anything I said. I remonstrated with the neighbour regarding Ivan's extreme behaviour toward me. It was a pointless distraction from the reasons I was there.
11) The neighbour left, saying something about getting the police. At that point seeing that nothing else would happen, I also left. the whole visit was approximatelyt 10 minutes (as noted yesterday)
12) I did state that to Ivan i would return the next day. In fact I have not and will not, as on reflection it is clearly not a good idea. I can assure one and all that I will not grace their door again unless invited (and even then I'd much prefer to meet in a neutral location). I know when I'm not welcome, folks.
In sum, as part of the continued efforts to reach out to Martin Mount I was lied to and treated aggressively by someone who took it upon himself to act in wholly unnecessary way from the moment I showed at the address. At no point was I aware there was anyone inside Martin Mount's house, there was no reply and no movement as far as I could see from the road. However, even today I still presume his innocence in this matter, despite the way I was treated, and will continue to do so until Mr. Mount makes his position clear. (underlined and bold-typed so that nobody can misunderstand). I'm quite sure that others would be prejudiced against Mr. Mount by now but that is not my position, as stated clearly in written correspondence to Mr. Mount before and after my visit to his business address. You have seen the screenshot of the WhatsApp message, if required you will see the long mail I wrote to him last night, as well. Also, as noted in the Whatsapp message and two short texts I sent to Martin Mount earlier in the week, as well as the long mail I sent to him last night, I made it 100% clear that my only motive was to provide him with information he needs to make an informed decision about joining the MIRL board of directors. Let me be clear: I refute any accusation or even inference that I mean harm to him, his family, his people or even the horrible Ivan. Instead, the purpose was and still is to provide him with the information he needs to make an informed decision (in short, I'm trying to save a fellow Brit from a lot of trouble). If he hears me out, and there was plenty in the overview mail I sent him last night, but then decides to go ahead with his nomination that's his call as an adult. However, he needs to make an informed decision and for that, he needs at least to sound out the CS side of the story.
If I do not receive a reply from Mr. Mount before Monday, if only to acknowledge the mail sent to him last night, I will re-publish the mail as an open letter on the IKN blog (and here). Then others can judge motive, instead of believing the one-sided version placed here today by Karl_M based on a message he received by someone with their own one-sided view of events |

I have written a private post to you. You can pick it up on "mail" link, above. You will see that there's nothing "unhinged" about it.
Respectfully yours, Mark |

| From: mark_ikn | 11/27/2021 12:12:50 PM | | | | | | As many shareholders already know, the MIRL board of directors has today sent a mail in an attempt to exonerate itself from fiduciary wrongdoings. I have posted the mail on the blog, with a comment.
iknnews.com
Here, my message is for Martin Mount and is similar to one part of the mail I sent him during the week. If he, as a nominated director, eventually joins the board of directors the information that MIRL deems confidential in the report is no longer confidential to him. He will be assumed to know and understand the contents of all the report as from December 15th 2021. He will also be assumed to understand the scope, or lack of scope, of the report and/or the questions originally given to the third party investigator. He should reflect carefully on those facts. |
