And- also- by the way- maybe someone can explain these repeated references/excuses regarding "travel restrictions". Unless the mid-major "team" is collectively a James Briscoe, I don't think there is much critical to closing a deal to be gleaned from "walking the land". Most of what is important to be seen (and explained) are the data/images and interpretations, all of which can be conveyed electronically. Even the previously mentioned "compelling presentation" can be accomplished remotely. In fact- the deal could even be closed and signed electronically.

Unfortunately- Arizona is fast becoming infamous as one of the next Covid-19 "hot spots", with Yuma County, in particular, not being that far from Cochise County, being especially affected. But, be that as it may- being isolated on a rig with just a couple of  (hopefully Covid negative)  hands out in the open brush country wouldn't be the worse place to be.

I don't really see the pandemic as a valid excuse to not be making progress with any deals. (How it affects demand is another, separate issue. Demand might be down- but on the other hand- copper products may be useful in combating the virus.)
