okay. good point. the question now is: how much money would they need to start production and on what level will the zinc price (if really it will do so) raise. To be honest...I have no idea. My guess would be: they need another 50 m maybe more (but probably not 100 m. Regarding the zinc price I have the feelling that we may see again prices around $ 3000 ton 2010/2011. The question is relatively simple: is this sufficient for a interesting return on investement. If yes than financing is not an issue, if not than....bye bye...and what if, the zinc price (for what reason ever) would raise to the old highs ??

I have to admit that there are a lot of "if's". Let's wait and see what will happen in the next weeks. Sooner or later they have to inform us about the next steps !
