Horsetrader

Both David Archer and subsequently Drew Simonsen have consistently stated in presentations (look at last 3 or 4)that there is "strong interest" in the BH project from "the majors", and this interest may have most recently been expressed I believe when HGO presented at overseas conferences in NY and elsewhere in March and April this year. I have heard something similar to what Trevalley has posted ... that the top 6 copper producers have all expressed interest in participating but HGO has said not yet .. we will drill first (to prove up some value and improve the terms of any JV). I'm fairly sure that Drew has said or implied something similar at presentations. But you are right .. its not specifically stated in reports.
