Good interview, which really forced some answers from TM. To give Tony credit he didn’t duck the questions at all. It’s reassuring that he is heavily invested and wants the company to succeed for that reason. The macro copper environment couldn’t be better, so if he can’t get deals over the line now, he never will, and he sounds enthusiastic for the year ahead. The only matter that wasn’t discussed was the drilling - still no start date for that. Anyone’s guess as to why.
A few take homes for me. First is that the company is up for sale as I suspected - TM is open to decent acquisition offers, he spelt that out. Second is debt financing is probably a year away as impossible to secure without the Pinjam Pakai mining license, which is still pending. Third is that TM considers the company fully financed until production deals are done. And finally it seems Aeternum are neither selling nor buying, and may sell their block in a deal later in the year. Although they are free to do whatever they want of course.
