The next Detour?
"Trade offs". How many times has Detour been mentioned when making comparisons? Many times including most recently, Justin saying...if this was a new build, you'd build it bigger.
Hard not to wonder if Sean Boyd of Agnico Eagle hasn't been looking at this? Why not add another deposit like Detour, it would fit in quite nicely in that portfolio of deposits.
Sure seems the " trade off" just might be to go with bigger?? Who knows? We'll find out soon enough. I'm leading to think bigger... but also appreciate other opinions as well,, such as Temples, maybe 10,000 tpd in the high grade? Interesting at least of the many scenarios that could come out?
Check this Agnico Eagle link out....showing Detours production numbers....wow! Over 700,000 ounces last year.. Might just he worth going bigger ...

Go BIG or go home. Justin has used the word BIG more than any other. The large investors want BIG...it's going to be BIG...Detour like BIG

Ceo of Agnico also commented that they will be looking at acquisitions or partnerships in the near future, just didnt state when.. And the region of particular interest was abiti region. As it is a rich safe region and serves as their base of Operations in legacy flagships.

IDK If JR would accept a 40-60 premium. isnt his average like 1.10 or something?

GBR got a 40% premium to its 20-day volume-weighted average share price when it was taken out by K, and that was considered a major score for GBR shareholders. If a TLG takeout is announced, the premium would likely be calculated based on the previous 10 or 20 or 30 trading day VWAP to smooth out any sporadic spikes or dips in the share price over that time period.

My bet is they go the JV route. I'd be surprised if they announced a takeout in the next month or so, but if they do, much like SBB and MOZ shareholders, I think the takeout price will disappoint those in here who expect 1.00+ per fully diluted share.
