RE: NI43-101 for SM in late september"We need to start finding reliable and reputable JV partners from this point forward as we can not afford to have our partners cause permanent damage to Tara's reputation."
Welcome to the world of JV's! If someone needs to JV with Tara (i.e., they can't do a project themselves), it is because they do not have the money (or access to it), or the ability (acumen, resources, where-with-all, ... whatever) all by themselves. They are, by default then, not usually going to be at the very high end of the spectrum amongst business dealers in "reliability and reputation". It is a (hhmmm? ...the?) central risk in Tara's business model/strategy.
I am not saying it can't and won't work; just that expectations on likely/prospective JV partners should be constrained (restrained?).
