Morning Eric. The fact in itself that they can't get the environmental application in by the end of the year wouldn't be so bad if they'd said when they can get in done by but one get's the feeling they've just given up on it and they're going to do something ese, something easier like flogging it off...but it wouldn't take four of them to do that.
Yes, Eric...she could have done without saying it, we might very well understand if there was a good explanation for it. How stupid do they think we are.
Rickmeister. My thoughts also but Finland hasn't even applied for a licence to mine the graphite, their plans are about re-cycling and some technical process...all downstream upstream whatever that means. But we might as well be positive, not much choice have we.
It's a good statement..."difficult for outsiders to understand" and that pace word again "Innovations are taking place at a furious pace"...but as you say Eric, no real explanation, except that they can't get it done. But another six months if that's the case is difficult to take in.
The new man starts on 7 August...what exactly is he going to review? Has the whole project been shelved pending finding a buyer? And of course that makes the elephant in the room the Sami appeal.
Eric...If the application wont be made this year, does that mean and then another six months to decide whether to go that way or not, in which case will US remain in post?
Yes, I agree, Eric, it was rough. Let's have a think about it...the biggest unbroken iron mine known in Europe, high quality, clean product...what's another six months. :-)
And just to drop it in the final paragraph that they're not filing the environmental application this year when funds were raised last year precisely for that reason. If there is something between the lines, I'm missing it.
