I mostly agree small holding. Generally speaking I'd also expect NvS to decline a further extension. Although I'd also not expect one to be required.
Or I should say, a further full extension. The only way I see an extension now (and even then I'm not sure it would be agreed by NvS) is if it's for a specific reason conditional only to finalising a deal and also that any such concession would be for minimal duration (weeks not months) e.g. governance, contractual, etc etc.
If Arcm needed further drill results and didn't have them then join the queue albeit they'd have a headstart against competition.
As I said I'm not suggesting this is likely, or required, but I like to keep broadly open to these things.
Either way in the scheme of things not long to wait.
