OKay just throwing this out for discussion.  I haven't thought through everything yet....but....what if we are hiring this financially-well-connected guy to shake out financing to put Van Dyke into production?  Yes, I said production!  On our own!  The recent MD&A's have hinted at the option to advance VD into production. We now have a very positive PEA, IRR, low capex and very short build schedule and financial payback.  Lenders would see this as a very-low risk enterprise. Especially with current commodities price trends and copper trading at a monumental premium to the price used in the PEA. What if this guy got hired because he said he could secure financing for the project?
Thoughts?
