My Q-line question to JP this week has to do with the likelihood of a junior explorer in a deflationary environment succeeding on its own into production, much like what Minefinders achieved this decade, but in the absence of deflation.

As you all know, I am convinced that Tyhee WILL be a producing mine in the next several years. What I am questioning in my Q-call is whether it will need a buy out in order to reach its goal, should getting financed be too challenging in an era of possible scarce credit.
