I like Cooper & CPM hold valuable exploration ground which would be much more difficult to pick up now.

However it is important to understand that Aeris have a lot of exploration ground in the region, from RoundOak acquisition. (@kemj)
They, Aeris, are planning to develop Barbara mine underground in the next few years, & Mt Colin is soon to be mined out as an open pit.
They have camp setup which they can move,
Aeris utilise an excellent contract miner, as indeed any exploration and development company could also replicate,

Everyone is friendly and know and speak to each other for sure re developing deposits & doing what makes economic sense. And wish the best for all.

And for example, Aeris know that Mt Colin extension if ever goes deeper, held by HMX next door.
So you’re on the right track., that down the track existing miners want to continue to have deposits to mine.

CPM are wanting and hoping to uncover good deposits.

CPM neighbours - best thing is to hope for all results CNB especially and HMX, but also others in the district, be very positive and for good drill results and discoveries to occur ongoing.

The potentials for a lot more copper and base and valuable metals and minerals is significant.
Finding it takes a lot of due diligence and carefully planned drilling ultimately.
