Aude, I hope Ontex has closed any and all financing deals. With the market in its present mood we need to know they have the money: we know they have the goods. Maybe they are holding back waiting for the right day which today was not. Gold is still the safe haven and we have a mine that could be brought to production in a short period of time. I would think now they would have to be taken over by a major unless they are wizards in the new order of mining. Hopefully with the amount of gold they have we are looking at maybe a takeover price of 3 to five dollars. I know that sounds crazy after today: but we all know how the market cycle back to quality.
