I'd like to think the MoP was just endlessly stalling and deferring. She perhaps simply could not act on progressing this because she's been payed who knows how many millions by Zijin, and it's probably already spent.If one was in a cynical mood they may just postulate that this is once again another stalling tactic by PR05, back to square one in running through it all over again with MOJ this time, an then once AVZ are 'close' (just like this time apparently) another stall and switch to continue in their orders from the Chinese masters.
On the other hand, one could call it progress as MOJ last involvement in all of this mess, was her pushing to mobilise the (4 months unpaid) Cominiere lawyers in the ICC case against MMCS to thwart both CKK & MOP plans which was successful of course. This process has been taken away from MOP purview, she can no longer disrupt/stall.
One certainty is that they love to talk.
Caught in an impossible impasse.
So passed onto MoJ solves the problem.
