surely it is a done-deal? I don't think Turkey will be politically risky...they need to show Europe they are a civilized country open to investment. We didn't get our takeover premium, but if we can get another low cost operation with large reserves running, that will help us in a falling gold price scenario that is emerging for at least the short to medium term. It is not just AVO that is done; almost all gold stocks are getting hit now.....
