As VP points out, there is big money flowing into exploration, development and mining projects all over the world. Big money. There should be a market-clearing price for any legitimate project properly looking to make a deal. It's again beginning to seem that either this co's management is inept and/or greedy.. or perhaps, notwithstanding all the enticing maps, diagrams, reports and pretty pictures exhibited over the years, there remains some fatal flaw at HM that scares away potential partners. Hope it's not the case, but what other explanation?
