I have a difficult time thinking that our rise of more than 100% has to do with the price of copper going up over the last couple of weeks. Copper has been more than $3/pound for most of the last 5 years, and right now, we're still another 10% rise away from that price. A year ago, copper was at $3.25 and our stock was in the low 20 cent range. I just don't see much correlation there.

I do think the outlook on copper is changing and we'll see further strength, but I just don't buy that our volume and rise in price has much to do with commodities prices. I can see teck buying a producing mine to meet short term needs, but they need to think long term and about developing properties that will give them sustained output in the years ahead.
