RE: Where are the synergies?

Thats why its down. HL has been a name synonymous with Silver, for over 100 years. Why would they move into gold mining in Quebec? Its like Coca-Cola diluting itself with Dr. Pepper. Years of building a brand and its thrown out the window!

On top it won't even require a vote from Hecla shareholders!

Nope, Pure Silver producers buy other silver producer/properties. I don't get this at all.
