there will not be a buyout with this PEA release. we have seen no indications of it whatsoever.
this buyout/ZENtoTEN/whatever else, needs to stop.

In one respect this is true. However, I doubt we would ever "see" an indication of a buyout. It will just happen (if it were to). There are several things that have led us to talk about a buout including (a) AE's own statements (b) the fact that this was/is being played as a buyout (c) the presumed high margin of the deposit.

Based on the 43-101 numbers, AE himself stated that if this mine was operational today it would be the highest margin mine in the world. It is almost crazy to think that they WOULD NOT draw offers, multiple offers.

We all know the uniquiness of this secretive market but if the numbers prove out as expected, this is a huge cash cow that will draw the necessary interest.
