RE: RE: RE: RE: RE: RE: RE: Canasil's Carina Proje I don't believe that the Carina project means anything to Orko financially, at least if Pan American takes over Orko. I spoke with George Cavey at PDAC on Tuesday and when I questioned him about this he replied that there was something in the PAA/Orko JV agreement relating to adjacent properties being essentially rolled into the JV. But there was no suggestion from him that this would benefit Orko in any way, quite the contrary.
I guess the question (and I did not ask him this-not quick enough on my feet) would be whether once PAA has assigned it to Orko if it can rescind and take that back. If that's not the case, then the assignment should technically be a strong indicator of PAA's interest in Orko at this stage.
Cavey also told me that PAA is drilling both the Canasil property and the Orko property right now and that Orko will be releasing a revised PEA and resource estimate by the end of March. He seemed confident that something would be forthcoming from PAA and thought that it would happening before April 12 as PAA has not, as of yet, indicated that they will excercise the extension.
I'm still skeptical of this as I work in an industry where extensions are commonly requested and those requests generally do not come until right before the deadline. We shall see.
