== Bre-X and The Trial of John B. Felderhof ==
Mr. Groia is perhaps best known for his successful defense of John Felderhof in an almost decade-long trial resulting from the Bre-X Minerals scandal, the largest mining fraud in Canadian history. The gold mining scandal was the result of Bre-X Minerals’s false reports of an enormous gold deposit at Busang, Indonesia. Bre-X bought the Busang site in March 1993 and in October 1995 announced significant amounts of gold had been discovered, sending its stock price soaring. Originally a penny stock, its market price reached a peak at CAD $286.50 a share in May 1996 on the Toronto Stock Exchange (TSE), with a total capitalization of over CAD $6 billion. Bre-X Minerals collapsed in 1997 after the gold samples were found to be a fraud.
In May 1999, the Ontario Securities Commission charged Mr. Felderhof, Bre-X Minerals’s Vice-President of Exploration, with insider trading and participating in misleading press releases. The trial was an acrimonious one and was suspended in April 2001 when the OSC tried to have the presiding judge; Justice Peter Hryn removed for alleged bias against the prosecution. This request was denied by justice Archie Campbell, and on December 10, 2003 the appeal was denied by the Ontario Court of Appeal. Felderhof’s trial resumed in 2005 and in 2007 he was acquitted on the merits of charges in a 600-page decision.
