Remember, with part of Tesoro in IGD and possibly other companies as well, as it was previously mentioned, we won't have all our eggs in one basket and a hostile take over will still leave us with some property. Lori likely knows which of the chances are most likely to have good deposits by now so maybe she is still keeping some for SLI. Who knows. Might be a good time to buy some IGD. If Tesoro sells high, IGD should sky rocket.
Any money accumulated by SLI for any of these optioned deals, net smelter royalties, 40% ownership etc. is still property of the shareholders and if the company ever shuts down , I would suggest that it would be dispersed amongst the share holders. 40% ownership is no small change if it sells high. One more reason to keep your shares!
