They would have already lined up a resource at the beginning with a view to converting to a JORC. What you are saying is that they have purchased a cattle farm with an agreement to process the beef and then sell to a client, but The farm doesn’t come with cattle!! Do you really think these guys are that dumb? JB has spent years building contacts and trust with the right people in DRC as has Airguide with the Chinese.
For the love of God!!
