RE: Should we develop or sell ?. There will be plenty of financing for such a mine as this appears to be. Would we be better of f to develop or sell ? At this point it doesn't matter much. THE CAT IS OUT OF THE BAG ! If Barrick 's offer wasn't big enough, there are other majors who would jump in with a better bid. Any offer would be mostly in shares of the acquiring company. I would be surprised if China would let this company escape it's control considering their desire to be rid of U.S. dollars and more heavily invested in PM & commodities. Wouldn't a bidding war be a beautiful thing in the midst of this ugly, world wide economy ?
