Let's hope they sell Hollister and that GBG does not try to invest any profits from the sale of Burnstone back into Hollister and take it off the auction block! If this happens, this entire process will drag on for at least a year before enough gold is produced from Hollister for the shareholders to see a slight profit.
I want to see both mines selling for about a billion dollars this spring.
