Remember we are negotiating.... I'm not a fly on the wall but maybe this has turned into a Billion dollar poker game. Did Our management has just dropped a card? Not sure but maybe this is a signal to Teck that we will continue to add value while you dick around and your (Teck) cost only goes up. Something is up that we are not being told. I also wonder if... Teck is in foreign take over talks and it's holding or stalling what they do with us. Look at Teck, coal, cooper, gold and bitumen.... Massive reserves. Teck potentially owns a copper district . What is there market cap 20B? It's maybe a long stretch a buyout of Teck but I wouldn't be surprised if that was the next NR. My point is something is up, we are being stalled for a reason that prob affects our SP in a positive way. You don't raise 2.5 million in the 11th hour just to get some more cheap shares. Its not ES mo.
