Important to also note that the Northern Indigenous Times is owned by none other than Wayne Bergman. Long-term holders of SFX will remember that name from the attempted extortion during native title permitting many years ago. Wayne Bergman is renown for trying to skim what he can out of mining projects in Northern Australia.

It appears he's not getting his "usual slice of the action" out of KMS and therefore using his news publication to stir things up. As@Franpower points out, Stuart Pether leaving his position as CEO of KMS was scheduled for later next month but due to everything running ahead of plan, has handed over to Broome operations earlier than previously anticipated - all very positive news. It's just the very questionable 'journalism' from Northern Indigenous Times that is trying to imply some other reason for Stuart's early departure.
