If someone has paid $5 million+ for a smelter royalty they are very confident that cvy's cameron project is a certainty to reach producer status.
this latest piece of the puzzle is almost certainly related to the big moves from Sun Valley and Palmedo to load up this week, and the general surge in price and volume.
This will have to be ann'd by CVY. The identity of the purchaser of the smelter royalty will be very interesting...
