If Sprott buys into Tyhee's goal of becoming a producer, in a way that is more sincere than the Puplava orientation was, then Sprott is a Tyhee long. And, Sprott probably understands that issuing more TDC shares to achieve Tyhee's objective is inevitable and necessary for the big payoff that a producer will provide its shareholders.

Kimber may get acquired and see its share price reflect this payoff, but for its shareholders which company, TDC or KBX, will more likely be a ten plus bagger in the long term?
