lihir and all that glitters, page-2

yeah, I remember the float and getting the big glossy prospectus - you'd have thought they were sitting on an island of solid gold surrounded by a jewelled sea - and as you say, never kicked a goal since....

I remember looking at photographs of their prospect and thinking it was a shame to bugger up such a beautiful place for a few bags of the yellow stuff - seems fate has thought along similar lines. I don't know what the natives sold out for (probably the corrupt NG government of the day actually got the loot), but whatever it was it was never worth fukcing up such a nice place.

the bad karma got them........
