I don't know why our resident bloviator decided to make a point on NT royalties. The deposit is in NT, it can't be moved to a state with lower royalties and nothing can be done about it. So mine what you've got, do it efficiently and carve a profit out of the revenues. He's clearly never run a business or been in charge of a large enterprise. I bet if he has ever thought about becoming a business owner and evaluated an opportunity put before him, he spent all his time working on the negatives and the reasons NOT to buy the business or start one up from scratch.
