Hi Maxw

I was thinking the same thing; AVZ selling off the rights to extract and process the tin. The up-front funds received could reduce the debt required to build the mine and its processing facilities, and any on-going annuity would contribute to annual operating costs.

But possibly going a step further by splitting off Carriere de l’Este into a new listed company while still retaining a minimum 51% of Roche Dure and 100% of the surrounding exploration areas. Both Roche Dure and Carriere de l’Este are of sufficient scale to carry separate listings. As a result, we would all be shareholders in the parent company plus the newly floated company. Win-win all round me thinks (although a bit of a distraction from the main game initially), and hopefully not a bridge too for for AVZ's management to consider a little further down the track.

Just thinking out aloud.
Cheers
