There are many possibilities, Districts are made, discoveries are bought, in 2014 this happened....can it happen again,
The Malartic Mine:
"The total value of the transaction is C$3.9 billion, or C$8.15 per common share of Osisko on a fully diluted basis. Following the completion of the transaction, Osisko shareholders will own approximately 14.4% of Yamana and approximately 16.7% of Agnico Eagle."
J 103 I think Yamana comes in and scoops up BTR, in advance of that, BTR firms up large land positions and takes out two players, SHV:TSX.v
a location close to Osborne Bell & DGO:TSX.v a location close to East Barry and Trove! And then, the Eagle will land.....and I will go out with one more outta the park prediction, since this is going to be the year 21/22 of M & A.....The Eagle takes out Yamana
#2 buys # 5 and now the landscape changes.....
