Correct me if I am wrong, but my thoughts on why they appear to be heading for Toll Smelting in year 0-3 ties in with the heads of agreement with the IG copper company. IG are behind AMC in getting their project defined and financed. This may be the (up to) three years. If a shared smelter is to go ahead, it would be unlikely that it could be built as a smaller one for our nickel and then enlarged, or we would have to finance the larger smelter than for our requirements which would generate losses.
Better to wait till IG is ready and then build it. A trade off deal, nickel grade v's smelter costs v's repaying bankers.
Do you have any other suggestions for the wait ?
