That may not be far off the mark. SA has a lot of mining applications on the books but ADN is the only one nearing finalisation, and an enterprise bringing 300+ jobs would be big for Marshall's campaign. The election is not until mid-March, though, and the campaigning, pork-barrelling and major project announcements likely won't start until February. I really hope we don't have to wait until then or production in 2022 will be off the table.

One thing for sure, you could see at the AGM how frustrated ADN people were when the ML was raised. It's something that's clearly out of their hands and is causing headaches for them as well as SH.
