Agreed, especially that many juniors with more advanced projects have lost 90-100% of their value and we have unfortunately experienced the difference between a PEA and a BFS and it can be night and day in terms of the real economics of a project. Why would anyone pay 200 mil for this when they can by 10 to 15 projects with potential? I says 20 mil for an initial purchase of 2 mil would be pretty amazing. Of course it won't change that little issue that we are still stuck in this shit hole for the long run.

"up to $15 million in Teck paid costs"
Copper fox gets only 25% value of Tecks out paid costs. The other 75% stays with Teck if your talking monies spent on yearly work programs or things after the JV agreement. Above and beyond the $24M cash. It is a 75/25 partnership remember.

Teck is required to fund the first $60M before Copper Fox becomes liable for 25% of any future spending which would be financed by Teck.
No where have I read the total 100% value of that spending is awarded solely to Copper Fox. It would be my interpretation, Teck, is required to contribute & spend the first $60M to complete their earn back. The value enhancement of such spending is owned by the J/V. Which then belongs to the partners. With respect to the percentage each holds in the partnership.
If I misunderstand this please direct me to where it clarifies or states otherwise. And CUU is to be awarded 100% of the value generated from the initial $60M.

Anyone who wants to place any significant value on Van Dyke(I don't) would have to explain the valuation on a similar type of ISR project such as Excelsior's Gunnison deposit. They have the following resource numbers:


and the following stellar after tax economics at a PFS stage:

Yet the market value of MIN is $ 26 MM. A buyout at a reasonable 1.5 X would be $ 40 MM, for a project with 3x the resource number of VD and PFS stage. If a project like this is out there why would anyone buy Van Dyke?
