Bozi, during the SR process I'm sure the various interested parties, which almost certainly included the obvious majors, sensed our vulnerability - it was hardly a secret - and decided to play hard-ball. They had probably convinced themselves that we had no alternative other than to fall into their hands for a pittance. They may have thought we could raise a few bob in yet another placing, but that was it, and, in due course, we'd crawl back to them on bended knee.
The Board decided to call their bluff and headed down the path we are now on. The 750m package perhaps came as a real surprise to the putative bidders, for the simple reason that so few junior explorers have done something similar.
If this scenario reflects the reality of what went on - and it makes sense - then for those of us who want a decent return, this was a masterstroke by SC and BS and not the dismal failure some like to present it as.
