RE:The inevitable Buy-Out of Snowline GoldBarrick has bee looking at SGD for a while now, but so has literally all the other Majors. I know Mark, and he will never over pay for an asset (he learnt from the mistakes of the previous Barrick CEOs/Presidents with their mega buys in the 2000/2010s).
I suspect there are a lot of majors waiting on met work to come out which should be good based on the grade, type of despoil and the abundant VG. With the holes drilled into Valley I'm sure they've outlined ~10Moz at >1 g/t. It remains to be seen if Valley is SGDs best asset... lots of potential on all their claims.
