Ann: Committee meets to progress Lulo Kimberlite Exploration JV, page-140

Emailed Nick today out of curiosity and was very impressed to get a fast and helpful response! Anyone who is tossing and turning like many seem to be about this I suggest you email him for a chat, he was more than happy to provide information about the delays and the processes involved. Without going into specifics it appears the delay in MIC negotiations was a result of Angolan authorities being unable to make the final meeting and needed to reschedule. Nothing more serious like some seem to enjoy predicting. Once rescheduled and assuming all goes well the new agreement gets sent to the Minister of Mines for final approval. He sounded equally frustrated to many of us and said he would provide the market with an update as soon as he has a more solid update for shareholders. For now, maybe everyone can try to play nice? Surely there is something better many of you could be doing with your time instead of attacking each other... Have a good evening all.
