Yes, Earnesto is the trigger man. Elmer is the front man, and Qualified Person to verify the resources. If you do your DD on Earnesto, you will find he is big in real estate development and not really hurting for money. He can WAIT it out. I don't think he cares if Teck takes CUU into production, or buys out the other 25% and/or partners with another company. I dont know what EE's ave S/P is, but whichever scenario comes about, IMHO, He is in this to make money, and it doesn't matter how long it takes. All of us are in the same boat, except OUR timeframe/expectation of a "pay day" is much shorter. I have been in this now for going on 10 yrs., and I am stuck waiting & hopeing (not selling) as this is a speculative investment, and as such, waiting is nothing new to me. I see you haven't posted much/are new, but have been following CUU?
Best of luck to all, koala
