Well Vette the part that I have trouble with is, drilling more untested ground. Could we not have done that last year?

We sent the drills back and forth. We had time to unlock value in our portion of CUU. It did not have to be included in the BFS. Just like now. We plan on drilling more, yet it will not be included in the BFS, but it could be if needed.

Lets say,the 120 days pass us....Teck still does not say anything....are we 100% sure we are on the clock? If we are then we have the whole argument of the transfer of the Laird shares again.....but lets just say that nothing happens from Teck. I would guess that we would drill anyways...to prove up more....that all takes time. I recall how long it took CUU to get the drill results back last time, With the flub that TT did. (low man power) to get it done on time. Now we have a chance that, that will happen again. As in waiting anouther year. So we sit. BUt on the bright side we should have the NTL closer and the EA should be submitted. So the question is.....is that what we have been waiting for?

As for me and my money IF were were bought out and where I would have put it......It really don`t matter. It don`t matter were I put my money or anybody else for that matter where they put their money once the buyout happens, even if thier is a buyout. We could be a partner with Teck.....we can all assume a buyout will take place .....but we all have been saying this before....and yes as time goes by we are closer to a buyout or partnership.

Now Elmer has stated about Plan "B". And how other company`s are interested in us, But was that before or after the release of our BFS "PFS". Heck we don`t even know what Plan "B" is. It could be that other company`s will bid on us. It could be to drill drill drill and have other comapny`s bid on us or redo the PFS-BFS to change the waste rock to a possitive becuase when the BFS-PFS came out in december....well lets just say the market showed us what they thought about it.
