focus on the future, page-3

Alright happy to look forward. I have a line of questions and an opinion that I am curious as to what others think about it.

Questions
Excuse my ignorance, anyone can answer this for me.
I have never really thought about how dual listings work or at least how they start off. I have only ever bought stuff when it already existed and given it no thought.
So how does the commencement of a dual listing work?
Lets say ASX NKP has 760 million shares (including options) right now.
Do we create new shares like an IPO, and they get sold on JSE, and it is separate?
or
Is it the same 760 million shares and it can just be bought at either ASX or JSE side. I am not deliberately asking stupid questions, I don’t know.
And what happens to BEE, with shares traded on JSE. can some of that count towards it under certain conditions

Opinion
Also how far in fantasy land is my opinion, that gleneagle / whoever else (Sth A gov?) would not have let G off the hook from the vicious sell off, without an agreed and almost completely sorted upon course of action (with certain pre conditions for eg but not necessarily, anglo case sorted)
