RE: RE: RE: RE: RE: RE: court hearing We're all just guessing here, so this is mainly for amusement. One thing you have to keep in mind is that ALL of Rochester is relatively insignificant to Couer, and the absolute worst case is that they lose 20% of it. They will probably lose the outlying leases as well, but they had no interest in them anyway.
Yes, the is is a huge deal for us, but for Couer it is really next to nothing. Their stock has slipped lately, along with most other gold stocks, but they still have a market cap of $1.82B. If a huge meteor came down and destroyed Rochester I doubt the market cap would change much.
In fact, this operation is such a low priority for them, they didn't even pay the annual lease fees, and that is what started this mess. Do you think they would miss the lease payments on one of their big mines, or forget to pay a bribe to some Latin American dictator, lol?
