Wow, Taseko Mines buys Curis project at Florence, AZ!

What I find especially interesting about this is that the people behind Taseko are the same folks behind Northern Dynasty and their Pebble project, the Hunter Dickinson Group. They are outstanding mine finders, developers and financiers, among the most important investors in the mining sector globally. Take a look at the this map.

Now that Hunter Dickinson is in SE Arizona, I'm sure they will be looking to expand in the area, so may already being waching LBSR.

Oh, I just recalled something. JB worked with these people at Pebble and is supposed to be on very friendly terms with them. And did they (as Northern Dynasty) not buy part of Big Chunk based on one drill hole?

Still, I think they will want someone else to poke the first holes at Hay Mountain before they take a more serious look. ...just my opinion.
