I found it very strange that both NB and Simon M were not there in person and attended via videolink. A reason was provided for Simon (overseas), however, no reason was provided as to why NB didn't/couldn't attend. Bad look in my opinion to not even provide the courtesy of a reason.

The best thing they could possibly do IMO is bring in a Tier one CEO within the next month and cut ties with PB 100%. Have him consultant for 3months max if handover period is required.
NB comments/admission that PB is not the man for the job to bring this project to fruition was refreshing to hear i must admit. Now lets see action and commitment to a new CEO from all NBs mining connections.

I highly doubt we have seen the last of GW, he doesn't strike me as a man that gets soo close and then walks away. AGM coming up very shortly...
