to assume that a considerable number if not all of the N.D. group are end users and not big mining companies waiting to take Zen over? That being the case, they don't care who mines this thing as long as they get their off-take. So the commentary on take overs may not be as focused and imminent an event as some assert. I don't think that exciting events necessarily ride right on the tails of the addition of a director or other types of optimism enhancing announcements. Where they do is when there is definite news on an offer with premiums announced. I don't think that A.E. and company want to mine this. Look at NOT. Years spent in talking and bringing people aboard to take this to the mining stage. Frankly I'll take the buyout. I don't want to wait five years for this to kick in, and as AE said, he doesn't think this company will be around in spring of 2015.
