RE:Thoughts on recent events

RE:Thoughts on recent eventsAbout the FUU deal: it still doesn't make sense to you? They just happened to drill a LAND-based hole AFTER they bought FUU. Now, what happens if you draw a straight line between Tripple R, the 600W (on land) zone and then continue this line? That's right, you'll cross into Forum (FDC) territory and then later on FUU territory. So isn't it worth 3 million to have a piece of the FUU action (which is letting partners pay for all the drilling), with a potential continuous PLS trendline and maybe even the source of the boulders? I think in a 1-1.5 billion deal making a 3 million dollar bet on FUU is more than acceptable. Sure they had other reasons too, such as making sure they have another project after they sell FCU, but hey I'll probably be part of that project then as well. And with FCU I at least know for sure i'll be in the FUU-action for 12%.

And the 9.9%.. So far it's only been an article online. Maybe that was all we're gonna see of this and it was just a way for FCU to rattle up the snakes in the grass (Cameco and so on). Or maybe it's real and they will have a 9.9% partner who possible wants to buy it all if he likes it. If not, then between them is 16% of the shares and though I'm not a specialist in Canadian takeover laws, it sounds enough to me to prevent any immediate hostile takeovers. I'm open to correction on this, as I don't even live in North-America.
