This was the part of the Zijin letter with the proposition to acquire 70% of 13359 north, which is not possible anymore, blocked by re-uniting 13359 to one lease.
However Zijin makes it abundantly clear here, that it has no intention to hand the 15% of Dathcom back to Cominière and be mister nice guy.
I think it is the problem, which will not be solved without Presidential intervention.
