Perspective
MTB shareholders have to realize that if the additional 20% does not go to DEC then MTB will be picking up a portion of the costs to further explore/drill and develop the property.
Up to now DEC has been paying the full cost and MTB has had a free ride. I understand that MTB has no or very little cash. In order to pay their share of costs going forward they will have to raise funds and further dilute the stock. We currently have results from 4 holes, this is a long way from becoming a mine. I don't view having MTB take on some of the costs/risks a bad thing.
I'm not trying to be negative, I have about the same amount invested with MTB as I do with DEC.
The other wild card for DEC is the Silver Crown Claims which they have a 100% option on. My understanding is that the later drill holes (9 and up) are about 120 meters from the Silver Crown claim and that the deposit appears to be trending in that direction.
