You may be right Roller, plus the considerable future revenue stream (in US$) from AVZ's monster pit(s) at Manono.

CXO's Finnis site is just a skip away from Darwin and the NT's joint military training facility. I am sure that's an issue not lost on the FIRB and its Chair David Irvine, as previous Director‑General of both the Australian Security Intelligence Organisation and the Australian Secret Intelligence Service.

Oh, and disclaimer: I hold both AVZ and CXO.
