“Low oil cost is a positive at the moment“
Anglo have recently invested $187 million on solar panels.

Troubles in the diamond sector, partly as a result of the new corona virus outbreak, mean bad news for De Beers. The diamond trader, part of the mining company Anglo American, raised ‘only’ 355 million dollars with the sale of the gems during the last round of sales. That is considerably less than the $551 million in the first sales round this year.

De Beers usually sells his diamonds to a select group of buyers. They are invited ten times a year for some sort of auction. In addition, buyers are expected to accept the price and quantity of stones that they are offered.

According to De Beers, the impact of the virus is clearly noticeable, and in particular with the lesser sales in China. The diamond trader is thinking about measures to accommodate buyers focused on the Chinese market.

Moving Poly4 through a National Park is not going to be straightforward, especially with people protesting.
Lorries cause more damage to roads than cars. ... This means that a six-axle, 44-tonne truck is over 138,000 times more damaging than a typical, small, 1 tonne car (such as a Ford Fiesta) with two axles.

The bonds failed because Sirius refuse the help of the IPA ,and then carried on spending money like it was on fire.
The IPA had the audacity to ask Sirius to make a plan and stick with it.

FFC are you seriously considering buying into Anglo American in the knowledge a certain Chris Fraser might be “working “ there.

The project – which is the largest private sector investment in the North – has widespread cross-party political support at a local level, and Sirius Minerals Managing Director Chris Fraser was part of the Prime Minister’s business delegation to China in January.

As the company seeks to complete its financing this year, today’s Quod report states: “Opportunities on this scale are rare. The Project is particularly timely as it will address so many of the Government’s current and urgent challenges and aspirations at this time of change in the UK’s economy and international outlook.”

REPORT SAYS SIRIUS TO DELIVER £100 BILLION BOOST TO POST-BREXIT ECONOMY

25/05/2018

Independent economic impact assessment predicts huge benefits from North Yorkshire fertilizer mining project.

Annual GDP contributions of £2.3 billion for at least 50 years
Thousands of high-paying, highly-productive jobs created
Annual exports worth £2.5 billion to cut UK trade deficit by 7%
“Exemplary project for addressing the UK’s ambitions and challenges as we leave the European Union,” says Quod report

Chris Fraser, Managing Director and CEO of Sirius Minerals, said:

“This economic impact report shows what significant and long-lasting benefits Sirius Minerals is delivering at a vital time for the UK.

“We will generate substantial export-led growth, create thousands of jobs, and provide hundreds of millions of pounds in tax revenue to benefit the local and national economies after Britain has left the European Union.”

“We will also give the UK a leading role in tackling global food security, selling fertilizer from North Yorkshire to help grow plants right around the world.

Robert Goodwill, Conservative MP for Scarborough and Whitby said: “This project is a huge opportunity for the UK and sits at the heart of the Government’s Industrial Strategy agenda. The creation of thousands of jobs, increase in productivity and boost to exports will help power our economy at a critical time."

Anna Turley, Labour MP for Redcar, said: “Sirius Minerals is great news for Redcar and the Tees Valley. After the recent closure of the steelworks, new high-value jobs and large-scale supply chain opportunities will be a welcome boost.”

There are known knowns. These are things we know that we know. There are known unknowns. That is to say, there are things that we know we don't know. But there are also unknown unknowns. There are things we don't know we don't know.
