Spoke with Cathy today and asked when the BFS is expected? She sounded a little exhausted answering me, and said that it is expected "soon". I asked if the next NR will be an update on the BFS process or just the BFS? She answered that it will definately be the BFS NR, not another NR outlining the current position. Also she said they were working very hard at completing the BFS. By the sound of her voice (since that is all we could extrapolate) she sounded geniune about working hard to compete everything. She also said everyone at the company is working hard for this to finally come to "an end". Again, she did not say if that meant BFS or buyout.

Environmental Application is expected early 2013. However, she admitted that she does not have the full details of that process.

Arizona properties: nothing is being done about them until BFS is complete.

On a side note: I have no info from Teck... that place is like an iron curtain when it comes to details being leaked. Makes sense, when you look at CUU SP & volume.
