Casey's Energy Report in its Jan. 26, 2012, issue, refreshes its buy of Nolan Watson's Sandstorm Metals & Energy Ltd. at 38.5 cents, officially, "Buy under C$0.35." The newsletter said buy on Feb. 16, 2011, at 50 cents, and again on Oct. 26, 2011, at 42 cents. Assuming an investment of $1,000 for each buy, the $2,000 investment is worth $1,670. The writer goes over the press releases and notices that Sandstorm announced an amendment to the coal-stream agreement with Royal Coal Corp., in which the fixed percentage of coal will be deferred until Dec. 31, 2012. This will allow Royal Coal time to increase its production, something the writer figures will also benefit Sandstorm. He also reckons 2012 will be a big year for Sandstorm as projects in Kentucky (coal), Tennessee (coal) and Utah (natural gas) come on stream. He adds that with nearly $45-million cash and little debt, he expects Sandstorm will soon add more commodity streaming deals to its portfolio.
