will the swiss lose their number 1 qld slot , page-48

Hoots,

is that why the QLD Gov gave them a mining lease for 30 years ????
I think the 10 years is for 30MT @ 3MT PA.

Given the number @ size of new discoveries & results, we may well have to apply for an extension of more than 50% on that current lease. Did hear mention of 48 years, & considering they have about 10 years more exploratiion to do, it is not likely to be a problem to at least take up the whole 30 years lease, just IMHO. Shame most of us won't be around to find out. But my Grandkids will know!!

cheers
