I guess it depends on how you price the options.

There is always a speculative premium on options which varies depending on a number of factors, the three big ones being volatility of the underlying stock price, the closeness of the trading price to the strike price (12$ in this case), and the time to expiry.

I have very little experience with options (in fact, I have none, LOL), but the 5 year time horizon definitely works in our favor. I'm going to look at existing long time to expiry options near the strike price on stocks like Goldcorp and see if I can get some insight.

Might not be so bad.
