"Bring it on Cliffs! You want to drag this thing out until more suitors arrive? Be our guest. We can wait. We can wait for a suitor who is willing to compensate us reasonably for this World class Chromite deposit. A deposit with the potential to corner the World Chromite market. Your well laid out plans are worthless without Freewest."
I'm not sure there is a guarantee that things will happen as quickly as people think. It is proper to entertain other possibilities and contingencies. If NOT and CLF only see fit to offer pennies there is no hurry as some think for a major to jump in any time soon. Better for them to wait it out and let the little fish produce the survivors for the big fish to gobble. It is a good thing you are willing to wait as many are, for it may be some time before the real action hits, but then again maybe not. One needs to be prepared for both. If a stalemate occurs then the heat is off and sp's will drop some as interest falls back. People should be prepared for this possibility. Of course exciting news will change things, but one should note that news of Cr did nothing and it took the excitement of a contest to raise interest and speculation of money making opportunities. When/if the contest abates many of the money makers will dump their shares quickly for fast profit.
