<< Me neither, except once in a while they try an end run like Barrick has tried with ARP. Not nicknamed the Barrackuda for nothing. I think that's a Bill Jacksonism. >> Maybe ABX learned a lesson with Arequipa...they did pay $150/ounce or so. But really, I don't think they were stealing anything at $5.50. The Lundin should have accepted..they were greedy IMO. The property was worth $5.50 to ABX...but much less to others.
