RE:RE:cost of buying MXI for IMGIamGold could just be putting that bluff on to not give any hints of a buyout. They always like to keep it secret during public releases. They have $700 Million Cash roughly, and debt not due for a while. WW... also consider this. Possibly all their wording in Q2 is to not scare investors that they're going to blow $500 Million on a mediocre mine aquisition like they did in the past, so safer to word it as not spending... and $70 Million for Merrex being peanuts petty cash to them and not worth giving hints in fear of stirring up competitive bids from Rangold etc. Their actions speak louder than words... and IamGold pumping so much money into drilling with Merrex and rushing everything. If they don't buy Merrex soon... I elect Wilwal to be CEO of IamGold!
