pints/tiger ten

It has been speculated that HCY are considering entering into a JV agreement with another listed Aust mining partner - If this was to come to fruition how would this change the dynamics of their current operation ?
One would assume the consolidated funding from such an excercise would serve to expediate their current drilling programme and move them closer to the production side of things.
Theoretically which other mining companies would be suited to working with HCY in furthering their current exploration and output potential in the Bardoc zone ?
