Hello kalmsg,
a week ago I had the pleasure to talk to the same man of the chinese delegation in the course of a dinner held at Frankfurt's oldest restaurant "Stern" (15th century) right on the "Roemer", Frankfurt's historical center of medival times.
Because (Coz) I do not speak Mandarin, Alistair Stephens was happy that I brought my chinese friend with me, who used to teach geology at a chinese university about 20 years ago. Later he studied Mineralogy in Germany and worked on his thesis in an industrial research institute (Wilhelm Dyckerhoff Institute)which I headed for 17 years until retirement.
My chinese friend had the opportunity to talk to members of the chinese delegation for more than five hours and strongly supports Your impression: this man You talked to, is highly dedicated to make ECE's investment in Arafura a success, at least he would lose his face in China if he failed. It's ECE's biggest foreign investment so far and expected to turn out into a big success for the company and the shareholders as well. ECE is considering themselves as an important shareholder with a wealth of input regarding knowledge in exploration and mining.
Personally my weak point is: I am in love with this deposit and if I were a youngster I would apply for a position in the project, anyway I'm in close contact with Arafura's management and enjoy their progress day by day.
