Don I know the Management from Sudbury was up to visit NOT about a year ago but that was with respect to Nickel.

Now that Chrome has been discovered in such quantities and qualities, I suspect that the head office guys who are knowledgable about chromite are leading the talks.

CVRD is much better financed than Xstrata but Xstrata just raised some $$$ in London. Did they do that so they could talk to FWR?

As a shareholder I am obviously looking for a bidding war. But in spite of my bias, it just doesn't make sense that CVRD and/or Xstrata would let Cliffs or the Chinese steal this out from under their nose. There are too many advantages for the 2 Sudbury companies because of their current operations here in Ontario.
