so what you are saying Walt, is that BHP could have built Ekati
for less, but they wanted to show off?!? That is so absurd.

There are several very rich ore bodies that I know of that will
never be mined because they have only small amounts of ore.
A small company would have a great time spitting news release
after news release on these deposits. They are too far away from existing infrastructure and too small to ever consider building
new infrastructure.

Super big deposits that support super-infrastructure are the way
things happen in North America. I've seen shanty towns around
small deposits in Brazil, I don't see that happening here.

Enjoy it while it lasts and make many $$$$$$CDN dollars!!!
