Well articulated.
I'm of the camp - to say no to Zijin for any part of Manono.
They have delayed this project for far too long. Who knows what they would do if they were running the neighbour mining site in the north tenement. Remember when there were instances of the attacks and vandalisms in Manono? Imagine how much worse it'll be if they're our neighbour.
I would also imagine that they would occupy the transport routes so that it hinders our ability to transport the stock.
They have much more resources than us - if they sold to others at a severe discount to what we are able to, feasibly - why would anyone buy the same quality of supply at a more expensive rate?
Having Zijin as a neighbour is a definite NO GO.
ZJs slanted drilling isn't even unfounded either, pretty ZJ have been accused of similar tactics at their Colombia gold mine. added to that unauthorized excavation which left neighbouring mines personnel dead.
Fucking disgusting pricks, with absolutely zero regard for legal process and human life. Using forced labour at their chinese mines, shafting serbian local mining staff, torture, forced eviction, the list goes on.
I'm all for BOD telling them to get fucked.
