RE: RE: Takeover?

RE: RE: Takeover?QUA could buy ML and pay down the debt with cash on hand.  HBM could do the same thing. 

The question is if they would bother - ML might not survive long enough to make it to positive cash flow and predators might be able to snap up Mineral Park in an asset sale by the creditors at a nice discount.

I think ML would make a tasty morsel to a lot of people - the most logical suitor is QUA based on their other Arizona mines.  But QUA said in their recent CC that they wouldn't be interested in buying anything unless the price was right.  And in this market, the price has to be outrageously cheap to get people to part with a big chunk of cash.
