I am glad this board exists - having said that either the new jv deal will happen or it wont. If it doesn't happen we go to zero or there abouts which I thought was unaviodable before the chinese road in on a hugo faced panda to save the day.
I choose to believe that the deal will happen - I also choose to believe that gold will go parabolic within the next 5 years. God willing we will be in production within a few years and in an ideal position to capitalize on a major up swing in gold.
I hope that over that period of time the risk factor in VZ will be discounted based on the establishment of dependable business practices between the chinese and vz.
If I am wrong - WTF I took a shot.
