It's clear that many do not understand this merger, even the most basic part. It's the 1:20 thing that is throwing some for a loop. This is, essentially, a 50/50 deal.
So many things that people said they wanted are included, a listing on a bigger exchange, for example, large amounts of cash and more potential resources.
This gives us a good shot at significant upside and allows the development of ECU's properties without slow, bleeding dilution. Sure, we're diluted in half, but so is AUMN and whatever it is they have, beyond the $100 million.
To me, it's like the old (40 years old) Melanie song: "I've got a brand new pair of roller skates, you've got a brand new key."
