Yeah, it's sorta sad everything fell through. But it wasn't the greatest deal ever. Maybe our CEO can come up with another deal. If gold and silver start moving higher that would help. I think a streaming deal makes sense, they could sell 20% of mine production, and they could use the money from that deal to finance NP. They could probably do a deal where they retain an option to repurchase a good part of that future production back. BRD and MEAOF financed operations by doing deals with SAND, hasn't done much for either of those stocks, but both of those are gold producers. It's not easy. That's all I know. Cream minerals is a junior in Mexico that has a stock sitting on .01. EXK made an offer to buy them, and thinking they could make more by rejecting the offer, the ahareholders plus the Cream management all voted NO. If they never sold well then now they have nothing for all those shares. It's a brutal market.
The gold and silver market are bound to heat back up. The NP deposit and the human capital make this worth holding.
I know that Cooke has said that a deal with EXK is not in the cards. That's his call.
But if the deal works for both companies then a deal between the two becomes a win-win, and seems to me like it may be in the best interests of both companies.
How else is EXK going to become a gold major?
That should be the secondary goal. It's not just about becoming a silver major. Gold works great as a secondary metal.
EXK should not be allergic to gold, and they are not.
