Bull,

I must say this may be the first time I disagree with you..I highly doubt we will truly go back to a gold standard..(although I am positioned for the very possibility.)We may have some sort of similarity,maybe a gold/silver reserve currency or basket...and back to teh JV/buyoiut issue..Either one should be good for the comapny however I think if Kimber has an investor friendly managment team(which I think it does)I feel either a JV or a sale of the Cramen deposit would be more beneficial as it would still own the other exploration properties and could then sell the rest of the company and/.or that property(if it attains another exploration area..Most things are worth more seperated than in wholes...That being said,it currently is in good financial position,however I am not sure of its burn rate currently and a major can wait until its cash position is weak and make a very low ball offer which it would almost have to take..Yes they can do another financing however that would be more dilutive and open the questioning of the fiduciary responsabilities...Again we shall see....Enjoy teh rest of your weekend
