Yes, it's a good deal for CZA. As I understand it, there's a lot of moving parts and they need to get the Yishun agreement completed before the UC deal can be completed. When I spoke with the company on Monday the 'documentation was being finalised with the investor' so I believe that is nearly done. CZA want to get the UC complete as soon as possible and while they don't comment on the company share price, they believe the deal will see the company re-rated from explorer to producer.
Also Skinner, Goldman Sachs have increased their oil forecasts which should feed through into coal. CRU anticipated thermal coal to be best performer this year and we continue to read about increasing demand from India/Pakistan. So despite the current rally there's further reason for optimism.
