    Options are used in economics to reduce risk, as you do in this case.
    Selling it blind is risky for boths sides, you can over pay or underpay for whats beneath and finding a fair price is hard.
    Options does what it says, you make an agreement on a set of options on purchase or sale of an asset.
    This reduces risk on both sides.
    In economics its usually used for large trade volumes occuring in different currencies. - removing the risk of the currency falling or going up for both parties by locking in the value at a specific time, also called a forward trade, which is one kind of option.

    I know where one of the biggest gold veins lay, its a proven honey hole. Its underneath an old 19th century hotel in central California in Gold Rush country. Mining was stopped there in WWII and never started back up. The mine was filled with water to keep tresspassers out. Would love to get my hands on that old mine, de-water it and get back down bringing the shiny stuff up. I will give you a hint: William Randolph Hearst.

      It was the one Sebo talked about at the end. 70 grams per tonne gold. It was one that already got assayed from the last trip. Unfortunately because the official assays take so long, we can't tell you what the current samples contain, just what the last group contained. That sample, 70 grams per tonne is why we are drilling this year at the midway mine.
