Fair points Cashed Up, and hard to argue against. If however, the price is right, I'm sure that a cashed up major playing the long game and who recognises that as high grade mines and gold resources deplete and become harder and more expensive to find and develop, bulk low grade resources (given an improving POG) will become more valuable and sought after. If the price is right, can't help thinking someone may be "willing to come in and 'do it better' at some point in the future.

All the best to holders, hope this works out well for you.
