I would be surprised for GL1 to make a move to be honest, that is a huge amount of capital commitment having three pre production projects in ballpark stage of development to each other.
Possibly with MIN backing like you suggest but I think MIN would be more likely to go it alone, I’d be happy to be proven wrong though as a higher bid is a higher bid.
Were GL1 to enter the fray I think that would rule them out for me to take a position, at least in the near to medium term until they can display a clear path with funding to first tonnes.
