Africa may be the future with unexploited commodities +/- sovereign risk, +/- civil war, +/- terrorist acts on infrastructure, +/- abduction & ransom of key personnel, but the real ANS involvement is still unknown with Mbalam/Nabeba.

Other than acting as a negotiator, we're not really bringing much to the table.
We don't even know if a relatively paltry $100M was even raised.
If it was, Ding would have been crowing about that by now.

And then there's the litigation here and with the ICC, that only a fool with rose coloured glasses would ignore.
