I would hardly call $500 M in Teck shares a win-win.  For those of us who've been around for a decade, it's like going to an all-you-can-eat restaurant and be served a lettuce leaf. Personally, I hope to be compensated not only for what is proven up, but also for the mining potential of the Schaft District.  

If a buck/share is all they have to offer, then we may as well wait until it becomes a mine.  Just my humble opinion.

Best regards to those few of us longtimers who are still here!
