Ide say it's definitely a CEO move to answer a shareholders question. He's not breaking any rules. Patrick Brindle very vaguely eluded to this in his recent interview where he stated

"What we did agree at a board level was that we would refresh technical studies that had been undertaken in the past at a feasibility level to re evaluate what might be required at some granular detail in respect to a full build out of the carbonate plant"

What a stupid way to say we are undertaking the normal process of feasibility studies of the carbonate plant.

If they've agreed at a board level to start these studies and it costs, as he mentioned "a couple hundred million dollars", then I'm pretty sure once the costings vs profit are done then the decision will be pretty easy to make.
