rio deal not essential for extract, page-17

I think you have a few choices there transtar.
From a risk management angle, reduce your positions and keep the free loaded amount and wait for the details of the outcome of the RIO talks or if the DFS comes out first study how long if the worse case scenario is to get the mine up alone. The last option be patient and hope for a take over with several interested bidders.

KAH is working in our benefit IMO. I think there were several scenarios as to what form of partnership is being robustly discussed behind closed door detailed hypothetically by LE and Marben from the other chat site. Ultimately the partnership entity must please all stake holders from the Nab Govt to all the existing players with vested interested including Iran govt. And most of all the board knows that at present Z1 &Z2 are the defining moments but this can change if the rest of the zones and the newly discovered areas with detailed drilling proves to be another big ore body in its own right and not a satellite body. So the scenario is complex and every stakeholders including us represented by KAH must be in a win -win situation.
