Ann: Goulamina on Schedule Post Discussions with Mali Government, page-620

I'd love to hear your thoughts on why we have our back put to the wall in the first place.

Is GF simply taking a bigger slice because we presented them with the opportunity? Has the stench from our (barely) parent company caused concern, forcing GF to take the reins? I don't want believe it has been orchestrated intentionally but have to acknowledge it a very real possibility.

Fears of deeper seeded malpractice by FFX make me think GF are taking the reins, doing their best to protect their investment.
