Ron,

You suppose that, "No one in their right mind would finance a junior in a perceived falling gold market or it would be on such horrible terms the deal would not get done."

Yet, (I'll have to check with Webb if I got the company's name right) it was Teck Cominco or some other large miner, that financed the Giant Mine in the midst of the Great Depression.

Perhaps they too were not in their "right mines"?
