"opposition win would be a brutal loss for Lynas" was NOT ever my position, yet another of your facile attempts at fake news. But you have not the vaguest idea of what it unwound.
"have chosen silence for some strategic reason" is EXACTLY what I told you months ago, Condisoil is waiting approval from the relevant govt depts, Lynas can only wait their decision before any further action.
