You may very well be right. Until a deal is signed it is never too late. But as far as I know TTM is moving forward without TCM. TTM has had many discussions with a company who is a producer who they will likely do a used equipment deal with. Also TTM have visited Mineral park (Mercator) and know them very well. Therefore mining expertise from TCM is not necessary. The only thing ttm could possibly need from TCM is their roaster. And they have a good relationship and I am sure a deal from TCM to roast TTM moly should be no problem.

If TCM is interested they better get going as pretty soon TTM will be beyond their reach.
