Come on now, hands up high so i can see them arrrrrrrrggggggghhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
I think it's the first part of a consortium moving to secure what they can at Monchegorsk tbh, and it explains how confident Citic have been with all of this to have been on a success fee basis for so long!

Then you have all weekend to dig around to either confirm or reject your initial thoughts. It is pointing to that type of move, the more you look at everything the more you become convinced, whether they win and secure however is a different matter. Even if they don't win, if they are indeed moving as a consortium to take control, the demand scenario from Japan as a whole remains in place as a off take route for the metals from the assets.
Competition will certainly be very tough for this within the FSP.
