Hookers, booze, coke, free in-flight drinks, bit of a party-fest with Trump and Elon, unlimited Macca's and hotel room service are the first few things that I could think of....

Zin32 seems to be that whole square, that's new last I checked (long ago).

The orange section PE15575 (apparently) belonging to Manono Lithium apparentlyis still the same and the purple PR13559 (apparently) belonging to cominiere is still the same

Last week my contact said there was no one in the board room as they were out trying to get the best deal for shareholders, my contact added no one was authorised to divulge their whereabouts. Then we heard later that nigel was in the US. The feeling I get is they're trying to sell the mine to the highest bidder.

Will be jumping for joy if we get a USA buyer.
As that also implies Minerals for Security has been accepted .

Regarding Felix's blatant offer I've been wondering how that squares with China's deep presence and interests and whether it signals a thawing of relations. Can't imagine they'd be too chuffed about it.

Or is it a cunning trumpian plan to provoke China into providing security in the east. From memory did they once have troops on the border...dunno.
