I don't see the buyout potential as decreasing at all. The delay in the PEA to me does indicate anything in particular. Under the assumtion that the PEA confirms the numbers already indicated and perhaps improves them, this is a rich cash cow deposit and miners SHOULD be tripping over themselves to get in on. I think the uniqueness of the product and the fact that there is no open market for the product makes it a more complicated for a buyer. But the benefit of the cash flow (or coost savings if an end user buys) far out weighs the added complexity.
