In the Smartstoxx interview, Dave Webb mentions Echo Bay Mines.

Note: Kinross, TVX and Echo Bay in gold merger deal

Did Dave purposely mention Echo Bay for a reason? Is Kinross interested in Tyhee?
Two things jump to mind that suggest this is a real possibility:
1)
Kinross bought Aurelian Resources. Dr.Keith Barron, Aurelian founder, is Dave Webb's long-time personal friend, having attended graduate school with Dave, even sharing an office together. Keith knows Tyhee, he's walked its properties.
2)
Bill Burton, a Tyhee Director, was a senior engineer, engineering manager, mine manager, manager of mining, of Echo Bay Mines when it built:
Contact Lake Mine (Port Radium)
Lupin Mine
McCoy Mine
Cove Mine
Kettle River
Round Mountain
Or significantly expanded the Alaska Juneau Mine
Bill also was (and is) COO of Western Canadian Coal when they built the three mines of the Wolverine Project.
Go Tyhee!
