a little perspective

So lets just think this through for a sec. One of the worlds largest privately owned companies (wiki reckons they're worth US60 billion) has bought 10% of our little company (at a premium no less). I know it's chicken feed to those guys, but you don't get that successful throwing your money away. I think it's a fair bet their due dilligence is above average. And this is (presumably) with them having no idea what BHP is going to do. Which reinforces my opinion that the share price (plus some) is justified by Burkina Faso and that Mumbwa is a potential lottery win with BHP in or out. I sort of hope BHP jump ship given the confidence Glencore are showing in us and the potential for a sweeter deal on the copper we already have proven with them. I only see this whole situation as win win at the moement. If I didn't have so many shares I'd be buying more
