What would IRR be if Rio paid $1B for Casino equity? What would it be if they paid $2B? If it takes IRR down below their 15% return on invested capital...then that might be very important financial metric goal for Rio.

I don't know Sooner, I haven't talked to Rio about their internal decision making process in a while.

Sooner: I will try ONE more time. Do you really think that Dale would sell WRN for less money than he sold Penaquito in 2006 when it had 2 million ounces of gold and it was at $800 per ounce? And zero copper!! That is an insult to Dale's intelligence.....

I for one believe in it, so much so that I added to my position again today, dollar cost averaging up. It sure feels like spring building up pressure to pop up to me and it has so much long (actually mid) term potential.

Oh, Sooner! You just don't get it! If Dale sells WRN for $6 per share, he would be giving away his life time dream for $900,000!! His BOD would go crazy!! And, so will I.....

You and Dale don't decide what someone else is going to offer. You can wish for a pony and a river of beer but it doesn't mean you're going to get it. RIO decides not you or Dale.

No, the sides are not equal...if RIO goes home they're out a few bucks but WRN is toast. You think this is by invitation? LOL Where are the other buyers all these years?

Rio paid money and get 8% share, it should be first large single shareholder, and Rio do not get any director position but much restrictions on their shares. if not equal, why Rio accepted these unequal restrictions ?

Dale DOES decide! He does not have to sell to Rio or anyone else if he doesn't like their offer. He still owns WRN which will no doubt increase in value every year he holds it!

If Dale doesn't make a deal this stock goes into the pennies. It is totally valueless without a buyer and I'm quite sure RIO knows this too. Doesn't matter if his entire family dug the hole by hand over 10 generations...it is ONLY worth what someone else is willing to pay for it. And NO ONE is going to pay $20 or 10x the current share price as determined by the entire market.

One man all by himself with like 5% ownership decides what happens with the other 95%. Seems kind of strange. I'm not saying he is doing anything wrong, but odd how one person seems to be the only decision maker? I highly doubt that ...and suspect it's more than just Dale at this point .

You are right. He is not the sole decision-maker, but the BOD certainly has collective intelligence that far outweighs any of us on this bullboard!

Great - since I'm the only one who thinks $6 usd is reasonable target...and everyone else thinks $15-$20....I am looking forward to putting my tail between my legs and eating my crow dinner in front of you all!!!! realize I'm in a win win situation. If it sells for $6 I'm happy. If it sells for $20 I'm very happy and will be just fine eating crow for that amount of profit!!!!
