In the article he mentions $1.5 billion plus a royalty. Iam quite sure he is referencing a previous article in the Australian that came out soon after the Kobold AVZ agreement was released on May 6th. Iam unsure of when exactly it was published but it was discussed at length here and on the crapper
Either way the article was as Samus said just a hotchpotch of bullshit. My thoughts on reading the article was that it was exactly the same style as Tolate on the crapper.
And thats where that 67c or whatever bullshit figure came from, where 1.5b US equates to about that in AUD depending on exchange rate at the time.
This time they've stated:
"The Australian has reported that AVZ might walk away with up to $1.5bn and a royalty. However, KoBold clearly wants to pay far less in cash upfront given the risks in the DRC and the depressed lithium market."
Not clearly! what's the source? It's all fucking bullshit!
AVZ would have rejected that figure if it even exists.
Didn't they report that 1.5b was 'the offer' last time



fmd!
