khareema: "If there were little or no news over the next 6 months regarding further drill results, or infrastructure, I expected a lowball buyout in the 1.80 range."

Really?

With our current share price I would expect a first offer at that price, but not a sell out.

Even most of the insto's would hold out for more. That is just my gut feeling.

The lowest buy out price that I can imagine, mind you with current status - no change, is about 2.50 to 3$.

And that is some lousy and unhappy imagination.
