Reward Minerals Limited is pleased to advise that it has reached agreement with the Western Desert Lands Aboriginal Corporation (“WDLAC”) and the Martu people on terms and conditions of a Mining and Indigenous Land Use Agreement (ILUA) applicable to the development of the Lake Disappointment Potash Project by Reward.

Silly old me thinks the above statement is fairly straightforward and appears to be written with the agreement of all sides.

But in this world there will always be some wankers who can make straight English words sound sinister and full of double meaning. There is no accounting for the unspoken agendas of some. In my world, there is a premium on people who speak straight and aren't afraid to lay their cards on the table.

I will await further news and in the meantime, am prepared to accept the above statement as representing the outcome of meetings between RWD and Martu and WDLAC in so far as it goes. Sheesh.
