Best is yet to Come12 Oct 2020 09:37
I was wondering if a Major is sitting on the Fence for Solg to publish PFA, BFS and others the price they pay might be way North of today's SP. If I am major do I want to miss all the upside and throw in the Towel and offer a crazy price. These were all possibilities when we were 1 Trick pony.
No with Porvenir, Blanca and Rio to follow may be not all Tier 1. The tables have turned.
None of the major discoveries have happened in last 10 years, If Cascable , Porvenir comes as Tier1, we will be surrounded by all the majors to get a piece of this.
If I am BHP or Barrick or Chinese. I want to get in early and enjoy all the upside. Remember couple of years back Jason said we have 18 Majors/smelters looking at the data. Some of the key points for Majors :
Largest ore body discovery in last 10 years
Largest land bank in Ecuador
Another Tier 1 discovery in the pipeline
Most Geologists on the ground .
If we have 2 Billion share with a Mkt cap of 1 Billion , I am happy to offer 1-1.50 pounds a share to get the whole thing. I think the problem I suspect is NM is not warming up to the idea. He may have a crazy price in his head for the whole lot.
I think does worry me if I am Barrick why would I wait for 15-Oct standstill agreement data, why not move early and give NM what he wants.
The SP has never held so strong in past 2-3 years what we have seen in last 2 weeks.
Any ways enjoy the Journey, GL ALL.
