Hi justinmetals,

I hope you are not suggesting that the Committee failed to check the Bona Fides of the final four applicants,
as everyone knows ,obviously all interested parties had to go through a thorough process.

I believe that this company is connected to Chinese interests which could be very interesting. Especially when Richard Cottee stated in the latest quarterly for the potential drilling of Palm Valley Deep in the middle of the year, possibly through a farm-out. We should all be happy about this progress.
