RE:RE:FN as stake holders.... IF the FN stipulates mine yes, TKO no, it is a no go, as that would hamstring TKO in finding a buyer. In my opinion...
1/ Respect for FN rights is not negotiable
2/ Respect for TKO investment and mineral rights is not negotiable
3/ a mine plan that does not wipe out Fish lake, and has the foresight to show what the area will look like when the mine is done (another lake or two, nicely landscaped), might go a long way to getting FN on board
4/ With the economy in the FN a properly executed mine would bring a massive benefit to the community. Win for the FN< win for TKO, win for the govt in increased taxes, etc.
