"The impression I got from the AGM is that if the numbers were hit from this program, then they would finally pull the trigger."
I am having a hard time believing that this year's limited drilling program could push an NPV that far along so as to breach some sort of NPV threshhold that incites Ernesto to go out selling the project for the first time. My impression is that he is asking a riddiculously high price that may only make sense to a buyer if copper LT consenus price is like double from here.
Was there anything specifically said at the AGM that led you to have this impression? I hope your not referring to Elmer's "...it won't be 10 years..." comment. We're nearly ten years from his letter to shareholders about their intent to monetize SC.... so they have no credibility in my eyes in that regard.
