it would give them tremendous advantage, but its important to understand the process of tender, where it would give them advantage is to qualify to the last stage which is the bidding stage.

at the end it will come down to who is willing to pay more to get the license. As I understand it the bidding will be transparent and broadcasted over the internet so every party knows where they stand and whom they are bidding against .

lets hope our partners want it as bad as we do and they bid aggressively as this project is worth it. Largest zinc discovery in the middle east.
