reality check

this article from last year is well worth re-reading and puts this into perspective. If SDL isn't at least worth the sum of the parts, let alone what's in the ground, then the world has gone mad. Don't forget the strategic importance and location of this project, and could well be to Europe, what the Pilbara is to China. Names like BHP, RIO, Mittal, Pallinghurst and China Inc will no doubt be watching this very closely.
