Ann: MoU Signed with Mali Gov & Sale of Entire Project to Ganfeng, page-128

Yes I say a very good chance there were discussions and probably payments behind the scenes.

This is China and Africa (Mali).

Very dangerous combo moving forward for any Australian business ventures. China has used Mali as the proxy to screw Leo. It couldn't be China because that would affect their investment reputation and international relations (in this case with Australia).

If they at least gave Leo shareholders a premium then we wouldn't see it as so dirty. Peanuts really given the project forward value (so strange they are not sprinkling gravy to sweaten Leo on the shafting).
